Was at the flames' luncheon today and Burke opened up a Q&A session.
When asked if flames were looking for a goaltender, he said:
1) Although Elliott's stats may suggests otherwise, but his recent play is the Elliott they know over the last 5 years.
2) Elliott had a rough start to begin the year, he could stand on his head the rest of the way and still not be able to bring his stats up.
3) In summary, Flames were not in the trade market for goaltenders - most likely due to the recent play of Elliott.
