Then yay we have veteran and Ortio. Now since Ortio has been riding the bench for so long let's say he plays craptastic. Now we send him back to minors and have one goalie.
We should be playing Ortio to see what we have there. Not the other way around. IMO anyway.

The fact that they are not testing Ortio is why I'm leaning towards the situation that they are trying to trade Hiller or Ramo and showcasing them to the league.
I mean what else would it be? Say they finally figure out who is better between Hiller or Ramo after 10 games. Then what? Send Ortio on waivers because he's the 3rd string?
Management will be trading or waiving one of Hiller or Ramo. This rotation goes to prove that Ortio isn't fighting for his job right now. Issue is we could be out of contention by then if we're waiting for one of Hiller or Ramo to have a statement game before making the decision.
