I can't answer question 1.
2. Elliott made sense to start Game 2. He played reasonably well in Game 1 -- the three goals he allowed were all either deflections or, in the case of the second goal, that horrible line change. It wasn't really until Game 3 where he completely fell apart. The more questionable start was Game 4 -- he was clearly done by then and everyone knew it.
3. Not in 2015 or 2017, at least.
