Hiller has been named the No. 1 starter in Calgary for the near future, the Calgary Herald reports.

Analysis:

Hiller has been spectacular his last four games, only yielding three goals in the process. The run of strong outings was enough for the Flames to break up their pattern of rotating starts between Hiller and Karri Ramo, as Friday's turn will mark the first time Hiller will have started consecutive games this season. Though it looks like he now has some adequate job security, if Hiller struggles as the newly appointed No. 1 starter, don't be surprised if the Flames go back to the goalie rotation.
