I would agree. But I also think it is great for Ortio to continue to log big minutes down the stretch, and to take his team on a run in the AHL playoffs.

I take a longer term view of Ortio. In the end, I don't expect you or others to change you opinion about what you think to be the best course of action. However, I do hope we can all agree that if Ramo is still with the Flames after the TD, that this is not to be classified as a wasted asset or wasted opportunity.
