One of these is not like the others. Elliott is a veteran goalie brought in to stabilize the goaltending the position.

He's failed to stabilize it and has been pushed into a back up role by a career back up goalie.

Shhhh! He's supposed to be playing like a seasoned veteran or 32 years old.

I like all our young players and Sammy too. We're lucky to have them.
Sam will come around, of that I have no doubt.
Patience, grasshoppers, patience.

Yea, he's been pretty good tonight. Very frustrating, as we've had some quality chances.

Wow Gio. That was just bad. With the guy down you basically have a 5 on 3 and you lose the puck from a stupid play?

Frustrating but the lack of finish and goaltending is what has sunk us. By my eye, doing most things right but just no luck. If the Flames play this way tomorrow I think they win.

Pessimism isn't good for my heart. Nucks have been mostly trash and Miller is sharp tonight. We'll get em tomorrow, but still, dropping 2 points to this edition of Vancouver is embarrassing. We used up all our luck in that weird Colorado game.

It's ok I kind of figured the people who my post was directed at would miss the message.

Flames are going to slam them so hard tomorrow.

Jittery night for execution. Miller's been excellent.. maybe the first time as a Canuck facing the Flames that I can say that.

He has? What leads you to the conclusion that Elliott is the Flames backup goalie?

I can't really agree with that. We've taken plenty of poor quality shots, but there have also been a number of high quality ones where Miller has answered.

So is everyone else, and Bennett is a clear step behind. Mayne he just shouldn't be counted on so much and sheltered much more until he can learn to play at the NHL level

Not really. The best shots we had don't count since they hit the posts, the rest for the most part were easy from the outside with no traffic.
