Hill has been forced into regular minutes for the Arizona Coyotes after starting goaltender Antti Raanta was placed on the injured-reserve list.
Raanta is expected to miss the entire season, leaving Darcy Kuemper and Tucson Roadrunners’ Hill as the top two options available for the team.
With the big Finn injured, the Coyotes moved quickly to claim Calvin Pickard from the Philadelphia Flyers off waivers.
But the performances of Hill have kept Pickard out of the line-up, with the 22-year-old Canadian registering a 7-3-0 record in 11 games he has appeared in.
