If he had any sort of potential, he would be in an NHL system.
Ortio was a guy that was highly regarded by Flames fans but outside of that - was a long shot to become an NHL goalie. It shouldn't be a surprise that he didn't make it.

So we have a goaltending coach and we have a long list of goalies underneath his watch without even considering the AHL that struggle with consistency (Ortio, Hiller, Ramo, Elliott, Johnson) and he shouldn't be considered responsible for that? What the hell is his job then?
I will admit it's not like he's been handed much to work with (i've hated the Elliott signing since day 1 last year), but each and every one of our goalies at the NHL seems to have regressed under his watch. It's time for him to go, and he'll have trouble getting another goaltending coaching gig at the NHL level.
