Agreed. If we're not signing Elliott, it's because there's another FA goalie we're signing instead.
Going with a Johnson/Rookie tandem next year is significantly riskier and likely worse than Elliott/Johnson. And it'd be worse to re-sign neither of them.
Elliott has played better in the NHL over the past month than either Rittich or Gillies has played in the AHL, and we're not over the moon about Elliott so I can't imagine how we'll feel about Gillies/Rittich.
