It always was win and you're in and it was common knowledge all summer that either Hiller or Ramo would be dealt because of Ortio's 1 way contract. It was just a matter of who played better. Hiller did so Ramo was the guy who was sent down. Ramo didn't get the first start of the season because he was declared the starter this season. All three were pretty much playing the same but only one could go in so he picked Ramo.

You know who's as much to blame about our garbage goaltending as the goalies? Our coaches and GM who destroyed the working enviornment.

That working environment was no different than last season. The only one it really sucked for was Ortio because he waited much longer than he should have for a shot.

So...is giving ramo a string of games going to create stability. No...but its going to give him some confidence and calm down the situation.

"All earned, never given"
He shouldn't just be given a string of starts to try and give him confidence. He needs to play well to earn those starts. So far this season he hasn't. I didn't think he played well last night but he wasn't awful either and got the win so he gets another shot.
