Frees up +/-2 to 3 million over the next 2-3 years to help find that top 6 winger. This team is really built to win in 2-3 years, don't get a 5 to 6 year boat anchor now, pay more later for someone you have complete confidence in that is a bonafide number 1, and lets hope he already plays for us (Gillies/Rittich/Johnson/Parsons).
If we sign Elliott to a 5 year deal - start trading young promising, at least 2, goaltenders right now for maximum value.

There's no guarantee that Rittich will be back. He's on a 1 year deal.
