    Default Brian Elliott

    Is he worth holding onto as a Halak owner or should I cut bait and look elsewhere?

    Time to let him go Gramps. Looks like we share some goaltending issues. Also appears Allen has leapfrogged Elliott...he's set to start Sun Vs the Canucks. I'm pulling my hair out myself.
    In the games I've seen Elliott play, he's been downright awful, and he seems to have lost Hitch's confidence while Halak is out.

    Good luck.

    The real answer is what are the alternatives? Context is everything.

    Would you swap Elliott for Jake Allen or one of the Dal backups (Bachman or Nilstorp)?

    Looks like Elliott finally remembered he's Brian Elliott. Personally, I'd feel more comfortable rolling with Allen over Bachman until Halak returns. However, I think Elliott's ship has sailed. Once Halak is healthy and returns, he'll be the captain of the Blues' ship.

    I own elliot too and there aren't any starters on the ww. I'm hoping elliot gets somewhat better and I'm thinking that it's all reddens fault, but i haven't really seen any blues games.

    I've seen almost all of the Blues games. Blame Elliott.

    I'm an English teacher. I hate spelling mistakes. Did I edit all my errors? Really though....Elliott reeks.

    That's an absolutely ridiculous statement.

    Elliott has never really been that great of a goalie, aside from his collegiate career. He was just a flash in the pan last year, simple as that.

    I still think once Halak returns Elliott will get his act together. Maybe I'm dreaming though.
