If they get picked up on waivers that's great (your not going to get a great return in a trade anyways) if not you send them to Stockton. I really think Ortio will be one of the NHLers.

The biggest issue is the 23 man roster limit. If you carry 3 goalies, that means you can only carry 13 forwards and 7 defencemen (or 14 forwards and 6 defence, but that's unlikely because you could get caught having no replacement D if there's a last minute injury).
Keeping an extra goalie in Calgary means having to send another forward who's on a one-way deal through waivers.
