Darling or Elliott?
Elliott just got dropped in my league for Subban, and Darling has been a disappointment on my roster. I rarely start him anymore unless i really need more saves each week. (Not that Dubnyk or Murray are killin' it either) Is it worth a waiver claim to grab Elliott and drop Darling? I don't think Elliott has been the Flyers' issue... they have one of the lowest 5-on-5 GAA's. They're getting killed on the PK. But I also don't think he's a huge upgrade, if at all. Thoughts?
Thanks!

Re: Darling or Elliott?
Seems like a lateral move at best. I think Neuvirth poses more of a challenge than Ward at this point in his career, if that makes a difference.

Re: Darling or Elliott?
I don't think it's worth the waiver claim as it's pretty lateral. If he clears id probably keep Darling with a close eye on Elliot.

Points: 2 G / 2 A / 1 PPG / 1 PPA / 1 Hat Trick / 1 SHG / 1 SHA / 1 GWG - 3 Goalie Win / 2 Goalie Loss in SO or OT / 5 goalie SO

Re: Darling or Elliott?
Thanks guys. Good advice. I will ride this one out with Darling, at least until Elliott clears waivers.

Re: Darling or Elliott?
once Elliott clears waivers you can continue to watch him waste away in UFA land. I'd steer clear. Darling's been meh and so has the entire team... Elliott I want nothing to do with

Re: Darling or Elliott?
Ha! you may be right, lucafen4. And I have an allergic reaction to having Flyers on my team anyway. But Murray left the game tonight, so you never know... I might be trolling for a goalie anyway.

Re: Darling or Elliott?
Elliot has a slow start every single year. And then goes lights out. I just keep forgetting to bench him lol. 4 straight OT losses or something??
