Hiller will be rolled out between the pipes Thursday for a road start against the Sabres, Roger Millions of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

Calgary has virtually no chance of making the playoffs, which leaves Flames fans clamoring for 24-year-old Joni Ortio to defend the twine and pick up more experience. Besides, Hiller owns a 3.31 GAA on the road this season, so it's not like he has the advantage in that area. Hiller will be an unrestricted free agent this summer after commanding $4.5 million between 2014-16.
