not saying he isn't a great prospect, but with your season on the line, I don't know how you question picking Elliott...

I think that GG needs to keep him on a very short leash though...
One regular season game? Chad Johnson has played a ton of games this season and saved our season in November. He has probably stolen more games for the Flames this season then Elliott as well. I just don't trust Elliott right now to get the job done, he's on a long losing streak against the ducks and his technical game is the issue right now. The Ducks don't know too much about Chad Johnson right now but have exploited all the weaknesses of Elliott. Trying Johnson could save our season like in November.
