Mike Smith and Brian Elliott are pretty much the same level of goalie that is a fact.

No it's not a fact.
Elliott has worse numbers on a better defensive team than Smith did on a worse defensive team.
Also, Elliott has proven incapable of starting the amount of games required to be considered an actual starting goalie.
Smith has started the vast majority of his teams games in 5 of the last 6 seasons, the only one he didn't was because of injury.
Those are facts, not what you said.
