He played 10 games total in the AHL before this season, and those were in 2010-2011 and 2011-2012.

So lets even include those numbers in my comparison:

John 'golden child' Gibson: 31 GP - 14-10-4, 0.920 save %, 2.40 GAA

Joni 'work horse' Ortio: 25 GP - 19-5-0, 0.930 save %, 2.08 GAA
.............................34 GP - 20-10-0, 0.916 save %, 2.40 GAA

I never said he was better, I just said compareable! I am not trying to say Joni is the new top prospect for goalies in North America, all I am saying is that he is playing well and has put up great numbers this year, especially compared to other goalie prospects (Like JB) who are considered at the top.

I think that is more than fair.

(Games don't add up as he must have been pulled for the remainder)
