Ortio has been waived by Calgary, Elliotte Friedman of HNIC reports.

Analysis:

Ortio made four October appearances with the Flames and lost each decision. Karri Ramo has been the one getting time between the pipes this month, while fellow goalie Jonas Hiller remains out with a hip injury. In terms of what is next for Ortio, it's possible that he could be sent to the team's minor-league affiliate if he ends up clearing waivers.
