I'm comfortable with either of the vets, don't really have a strong preference for one over the other, but am not sold on either. I'm hopeful that Ortio can take it and run, but that's partially wishful thinking because I'm not satisfied with either of the vets, and simply want Ortio to succeed.
That said, I'd argue that Ortio has shown that he can play in this league, and it's time to take the risk and bring him into NHL. I'm thinking that training camp will turn into a Ramo/Hiller competition, and the weakest link gets traded. Both should be moveable.
