I want Elliott to win. When Elliott wins the Flames win.
I certainly want Elliott to win. But this is an important game and IMO Flames should be playing their best goalie, not the goalie who may have more to prove. Right now, Elliott has more to prove every time he starts. It seems like flawed logic to me, but maybe they see something in practice, Or just something about their relative mindsets. I hope it works but as I said, I'd rather see the better goalie. Does not make me a machine or an impassive automaton. Jeez.
