We definitely have the team that could finish above LA. But it will come down to goaltending, they have a true #1, we have two overpaid backups imo. Last year both of them had huge holes in their game. Rebound control wasn't good with either. Early easy goals on Hiller. Overplaying a cross crease move for Ramo which took him out of plays.
Now, Ortio on his call up looked good, composed, had decent rebound control, but is he ready to be a full time starter? Only given the chance will we ever know.
I agree that Hiller and Ramo aren't top notch goaltenders, but they're definitely not backup quality. It feels more like we have two 1B goaltenders with no clear 1A.
