I don't think you can judge Ramo on a few spot starts, I'd like to see him get the same opportunity as Ramo and get a consistent run of games. If he plays 5 or 6 in a row and doesn't run with it, time to give Ortio a look.

Except Ramo has only played 1 less game than Berra, has a worse GAA as well as a worse SV%.
If meritocracy is the sole thing you're concerned about, then Berra is the better goalie who has merited more starts.
Ramo also started games when the Flames were outplaying their opponents near the beginning of the year and still has poor statistics to show for it.
During that same period, Ramo was worse in every category than Joey Mac, and yet nobody wanted Joey Mac starting games. All 3 guys have been given an equal chance, and Berra is (albeit by a small margin) the best.
