Off topic, but here's really cool quote from Ward on Dan Kinvig's Ortio
article from the other day:
Quote:
After Ramo returned to health, the Flames sent Ortio back to Abbotsford, where his presence has "a calming effect" on the team, Ward said.
"We have a lot of systematical rules . . . this you can do, this you can't do," Ward explained. "When Joni gets in there, instead of black and white, it becomes a little bit grey, if that makes sense.
"We feel we can do different things within the system – we have different little liberties about how we play. That wasn't right away, that developed over time. As his confidence grew, our confidence grew."

Kind of goes to show you what Ortio truly brings to this team and, hopefully, to the Flames one day.
