Oh well, best of luck Joni Ortio!

I would have been bummed about Ortio too, if we had signed somebody as a backup at $3.5 - $4M
But Johnson is an upgrade to Ortio (today) and isn't all that much more money.
Johnson at $1.7M > Ortio at $800K
If Ortio develops into a better goalie, well so be it. Because we still have a stable full of prospects in net.
