Just a gut feeling he is exactly the guy we need. No to any UFA that wants 5+ years please.

I'm with you guys. There's three things I love about him.

1) he's a gamer. You can tell he hates to lose and let in goals.
2) he's got size. Big goalies don't often give up those 6 hole softies that we see from Elliott far too often. Mike Smith makes the save on that 4-2 killer at the end of the 2nd period in game 3 every single time just cause of his size and positioning.
3) he plays the puck well. I'd love to have a guy back there that could help out our defensemen.
