The statistical advantage IMO comes from Elliot playing behind one of the better defensive teams in the league.
IMO bad Fleury is less terrible then bad Elliott, good Fleury is about the same as good Elliott, and Fleury is more likely to be good than bad in the playoffs than Elliott.
In other words I think fair to say Fleury comes with the same problems, just not as bad and not as often. (... when you put it like that it does sound a lot like the less bad of two terribles.)
