I didn't quite agree Ortio passing Irving. I think this season will play that out, but it is being a bit presumptuous at this point to infer that without Ortio playing a chunk of games in the AHL.
I HOPE that is the case - not because I don't like Leland - but because it would mean that Ortio is a stud in goal. I thought Leland rebounded quite nicely last season, and seems to be NHL material - so if Ortio passes him, that would be 'great news' for the Flames.
