Um no. I've watched every single minute of both series and they've all been ridiculously good theyre all even imo
Uhm yeah no. Howard hasn't been that good, Hiller has been decent and Reimer has been good.

Yeah you clearly haven't watched the games then, the only times Howard hasn't been great has been when his team collapses in the last 10 minutes of the 3rd. Hiller has been great (And I'm a huge Hiller doubter) Reimer has been good but no better than Hiller or Howard at all.
Thank you to My boys @Merica and @Ragnar for the lovely sigs!

I disagree strongly. The team collapsed in front of Reimer last game but it didn't affect him.

And that matters how? He let in a goal in the final minutes and quite a few of his saves were extremely lucky (When he's sprawling desperation style.) He still let in a goal. So it did effect him. He's played good never did I say he hasn't, I'm saying you're not giving Jimmy Howard or Hiller enough credit. Hillers stats look almost identical to Reimers first of all so even if you're going off stats they're pretty much even. But I'm not going off of stats, I'm going off of watching literally every shot of both series (Aside from the first period of game 1 which was blacked out because fuck Chicago's OT) and pretty much every goal scored on Hiller or Howard would easily have gone in on Reimer as well. Factor in the fact that Detroit and Anaheim are BOTH over 25% on their PP and you're looking at quite a lot of goals scored and the main reasoning behind why their numbers are lackluster. There's been A LOT of PP goals and none of them were the goalies fault. Off my head I can think of one goal that was Howards fault and that was when Getzlaf pickpocketed him shorthanded and dangled it around him.
