Even Better News on Hiller
The Ducks are reporting that Jonas Hiller has been skating and hasn't experienced any symptoms related to vertigo. True test will be that first pre-season game.
And everything is - slowly - falling into place.

This makes me so happy
I think his absence really hurt us against Nashville. Emery was a little slow to move side-to-side and I think a healthy Hiller would have given us a better chance. A healthy Hiller in 2011-2012 could take us a long way.

Emery, and to a lesser extent Ellis, saved our season after McBackup fell apart. But if Hiller stayed healthy all season I think the Ducks win the Pacific. If Hiller was able to play against Nashville there’s no way we lose that series. So many of their goals were a result of Emery’s molasses-like lateral movement.
That being said, we also win that series if we don’t piss down our leg with ~30 seconds left in regulation of Game 5.
Just waiting until September
