I see you truly believe that what we have watched in 14 games is all we will see this year. Might as well stop the season now I guess. Elliott moving to a new city and his wife having their first child a week before the season started wouldn't have any impact on his play.

Also while I think Elliott is a decent goalie there is a reason the Blues moved him after he made the conference finals, there is a reason they paid a huge price to get Ryan Miller 3 years ago and the fact he has never played a starters load in his career.

I am not giving the D a clear pass but what about the 2 years previous when Gio-Brodie were regarded as one of the best pairs in the league and Hamilton was top pair in Boston? These guys have to be better and I believe they can be. You only like the narratives that make the team look bad
Right now 19 year old 2015 2nd round draft pick Brandon Carlo is on the top pairing in Boston. The only thing that this proved to me is that a 39 year old Chara has the ability to cover for whoever they pair him with.
