team x wants ortio in a deal, but if they claim him off waivers then he has to stay with their big club. if he clears waivers he can then be traded and the team that gets him has more maneuverability.

Some of you guys are reading into the PTO too much.
As previous stated Nagle was signed primarily because Stockton does not have a backup goalie to dress.
Eric Hartzell was signed on a PTO on Nov 23 and released on Nov 24 because they found a better goalie in Nagle. - Point being PTOs in the AHL don't mean anything really.
