The team played well enough in front of both Poulin and Gillies. The team has zero confidence in front of Ortio and they play pretty much like the Flames did in early October when he's in net. They know if they make a mistake it'll be in the back of the net and they play too tight, which compounds the problem and they make more mistakes.

Mental strength is a huge part of goaltending. In terms of raw skill, there probably isn't much difference between Ortio and Ramo. However, it seems like whenever things don't go Ortio's way he plays terribly which doesn't help the situation.
