But even with that, the team didn't win at a playoff rate. And he's only played and sustained that for 25 games. Not 60-70, which is an even greater test for a goaltender. And which he would need to play if you're trying to keep Pavelec out of the net. My bringing up Ortio wasn't comparing the two. I said Ortio's played more games, which was the point. And it's pretty unanimously considered that he's unproven. Which would go the same for 'Connor' because he doesn't have a full season as a starter yet for you to realistically hope that he'd be simply thrown that opportunity next season from the get go, based on the logic that he's won a lower levels? And with how "obtuse" WPG management has been in regards to handling the goatending. Maybe. You could be right. But I guess unfortunately for you guys, your coaching doesn't compile its lineup strategies based on a widespread hyped assumption of fans.
Ok. I disagree.
