Hiller Is Ready to Go!

Great news for Duck fans, Jonas Hiller is ready to play!! He has been training on and off ice in his home town in Switzerland. Hiller is expected to attend training camp in September.

Hiller spoke with reporters on a conference call the other day.

On his current training and progress:

-“I haven’t played games for quite a while now, so I can’t make any promises. I’m feeling great in practice. I see the puck well. I’m definitely looking forward to being back playing as soon as possible”.

-“We had some scrimmages in the first week. Then, they started building up too. The intensity is already quite high in their practice because they are starting the season pretty soon here. They are already getting game-ready. It’s great for me to be able to skate with those guys. They have to be ready earlier than us. It’s definitely comparable to practice in the NHL.”

On his symptoms:

– “I went back home and saw another couple of doctors. I got some second opinions, but nobody could really exactly tell me where it was coming from. Everybody was saying it could be a few things, but nobody was really able to put their finger on it. It was frustrating, especially for the future. I wish I would know what exactly happened to prevent it from coming up again. I definitely hope it’s a one-time thing. If it is, I don’t really care what actually caused it”.

Obviously great news for Duck fans. Another step towards making a successful cup run. Hopefully his symptoms don’t return and he can lead the Ducks to a great season
