If you want a 10-30 record in those 40 games, sure. IMO second half Johnson was the more representative of the two. I think the same regarding Elliott - his good second half was the real Elliott, the poor first half wasn't.
I don't disagree that Rittich and Gillies are unproven. How exactly do you propose that they become proven? I'd be way more comfortable with a decent number one and them than with a number one who plays only 50 games and Johnson.
