And don't get me wrong, I was as disappointed as anyone not named Ortio. I really thought he was going to be the guy this season and fit like a glove with the young core.

Without him I'm a little worried on the goaltending front over the next 5 years.
I think that's part of the bias towards the guy from the fanbase. If he doesn't pan out, there's a big hole there.

Everyone wants the Flames to draft and develop a NHL caliber goalie. Starter? The Flames haven't even graduated a backup caliber guy in ages. The last was Curtis ****ing McElhinney.
