I would never play a goalie in back to back nights, especially on the road. Playoff are the only obvious exception. The temptation is there because of the pressures of a horrible start, and in an effort to keep Elliot going.
As a head coach though, you have too look at the overall and season-long picture. Johnson has played well lately, and Elliot should rest up. Don't care what anyone says, and elite athlete such as Elliot need some rest after 65 minutes plus a shootout.
That's just me. I would go with Johnson tonight.
