He's never been great at any level, but he's promising? I'm sorry, I don't follow.
He had an awful, awful game. There's as many of these as there are good games

You know who else struggled as a 3rd string goalie at 24 /25 in the Nhl but also led Hc TPS junior team to a finish chamionship and a silver as well when he was young .......Mikka Kippersuaff.
Im not saying that Ortio is the next Kipper but that are following almost exact paths in their careers. It would be terrible if the Flames made the same mistake San Jose did with out giving him a fair shake.
