I don't actually follow the Finnish league, but I noticed that Ortio got his first start in the SM league tonight. TPS has started the season extremely poorly and the coach benched the number one goalie Engren.

Looks like Ortio did better than him, even though his team lost 3-0. He made 47 saves. Seems like he was the one positive thing for the deeply troubled TPS, so he might get more starts.

At least to me this gives the impression that there's a chance there will be some real competition for the number one spot this year.
