He was unproven as a full season starter before he came here, and it showed. With competent goaltending, the Flames win that series.
To be fair for Elliott, the entire team was a dumpster fire at the start. Without Elliott playing lights out during the stretch drive the Flames would have been in the draft lottery this year. IMO He played pretty well from December on to March.

Flames couldn't win in Anaheim with Kiprusoff and Iginla in their prime. What makes you think they would have beaten Anaheim this year.
