What is bizarre is how upset people are that he isn't getting THIS start. There are 18 more games after tonight.

It's not puzzling because it isn't just one game. It's one more pebble in a large pile of puzzling decisions from the coaching staff and it puts an explanation mark on the inconsistent goalie management all season.
I don't even like Ortio. I think he drops too easy, struggles in a crowd, loses the puck routinely, and has a tendency to get flustered. I also think he lacks the "clutch" that great NHL goalies have and it partly explains his inability to consistently get wins at any level.
But he is the only goalie playing with any chance of being with us beyond this season and I don't like how ineffective the Flames development of him has been this season.
