Listen to the Brad Treliving interview about how the goalie situation was being handled. A very young player like Ortio has been sheltered just the same as has Bennett. This was not "ignoring" Ortio. This was protecting him from a toxic on-ice situation where there were real concerns about how that would affect him in his first year with the NHL club.

I thought that his last two games were not as good as his first several games. Bennett is NOT a seasoned NHL veteran, so yes, Hartley and any other coach at this level will handle him differently than his other forwards who have had slow scoring starts.
