That is an interesting question but I doubt it.

I'm going to get an answer to that as I don't know but now I'm curious.

The AHL released the roster changes today for the AHL All Star Game as well as the starters.

Ortio was not on the "unavailable" list so looks like he will be playing.

And Ortio won't be going:

Looks like a last minute change from Hartley as they updated the "final" list yesterday.

[Enoch Root]

is Shore going?

[Drury18]

Yes, Shore and Poirier are both going.

Soooo why isn't he playing in the all-star game, if word from management is that they want to run with Hiller/Ramo again? That was what Conroy said on the Fan 960. Is he just bluffing while they work a trade or do the Flames just hate the AHL all-star game?

Listening to Darryl I learned not to believe everything management had to say. I think Ortio's situation could be in a state of flux, where there may be a deal on the table. If it gets done, Ortio gets recalled, otherwise Ortio stays down.
