Ortio stopped 20 of 23 shots in in a 3-2 loss to the Kings on Monday. Ortio has held the opposition to 2.24 goals per game in his first five starts, but that has only translated into two wins. He is a risky play on most nights, but playing him when he is starting vs. the Ducks is a down-right bad idea.

Ortio stopped 12 of 14 shots in a 2-1 loss to the Canucks on Saturday. It was a quiet night for Ortio, but aside from a 100-foot blast by Brian McGrattan, the Flames couldn't beat Eddie Lack. His fourth straight start will come vs. a Kings team who have won seven in a row while outscoring the opposition 20-9.

Ortio stopped 23 of 26 shots for his second straight win on Friday night. The W has earned him the call again tonight in the second game of a back-to-back set for the Flames. He has gone 2-1-0 with a 2.02 GAA and .926 SV% in his first three NHL starts. Tonight he gets the nod against a Canucks team who have seen better days.

Ortio stopped 30 of 31 shots to earn his first NHL victory on Wednesday vs. the Senators. In his first two NHL starts, Ortio has stopped 52 of 55 shots which is good for a 1.53 GAA and .945 SV%. With Reto Berra now in Colorado and Karri Ramo still on IR, Ortio is the Flames starter for the foreseeable future. He draws a strong matchup vs. the Islanders tonight.

Ortio stopped 22 of 24 shots in a 2-0 loss to the Kings in his NHL debut. He will get his second career start tonight with the Senators in town. Ottawa sits 12th in the league in scoring (2.79 G/PG), so the matchup is not ideal. On a four-game night, Ortio could be your only spot-start option.

Ortio is 20-6-0 with a 2.22 GAA and .926 SV% with the Abbotsford Heat (AHL) in his first North American season. His first NHL start will come against the 31-22-6 Kings who will be playing their second game of a back-to-back set.

Ortio has played 25 games with Abbotsford this season. He is top five in the AHL in all goaltending categories with a 19-5 record (2nd) for a .792% winning percentage along with a .930% save percentage (3rd) and a 2.08 GAA (4th).

No immediate fantasy hockey value while playing in the AHL.
