Johnson of course. As much as fans love the great stories at 31 years old the Flames have not unearthed a starting goaltender under the noses of 29 other teams. He can start games and play at a high level only for periods of time. Starting goaltenders are expected to carry the load for 2/3 of a season. Elliott's pedigree is far superior despite what's transpired this season.
