Elliott has done nothing in this series to help the Flames win, he's only hurt them. He better not be back next season. I've watched a lot of other series this postseason and every other goaltender seems to be at least adequate. Elliott has been unbelievably underwhelming.
The guy tries so hard to make the initial save because he doesn't track the puck well that he gives up terrible rebounds. That last goal tonight was an example where he was too focused on the first save and didn't place the rebound in a better position and instead it goes right up the middle and into a body and in the back of the net. We need a real #1 because he is not that guy.
