When 80% of your team are first or second year pros, it's amazing he didn't get lit up. Adirondack would of had a terrible record without Ortio. Ask anyone who follows the AHL. The other 2 career AHL goalies looked atrocious in comparison. And they've been in the league for years.
You posters that reference a save percentage out of context are no better then all the HF posters who say the Flames will regress because of advanced stats. They sit in their chair spewing unsustainable talk without watching a single game. That's what you are doing with Ortio.
