I would not like him being our main starter though. Only talking if he splits with a capable prospect. Lots of cap hit left then to get some help up front.
The problem is that on some nights that statement is correct and on others it isnt.

Could you imagine what the Flames' season would have looked like if it didnt take 2 months for Elliot to get his game together?

And even when he was on his game he still routinely allowed one bad goal a game.

If you thought this season would have a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.
