so just saying. Treliving would have gotten tons of credit for stealing a great goalie if Elliott was lights out, so he should get blame if it doesn't work out.

You danced around the question though. In his most recent showing, Elliott was a strong starting goalie that was leading his team on a playoff run. Scrivens is a disingenuous comparison. Not saying Treliving gets off on this one, but this was not bringing a backup in and hoping he becomes a starter.
