Did I just read that Hank wasn't an elite goalie in 2013? What the f*** are you smoking, buddy?
Depends what you call elite, I think of elite as the top 3 or so (top 10%), 2008-2012 Lnndqvist was clearly elite.
People like to inflate "elite" and "brilliant" to the point they become meaningless.

What stands out about Lundqvist during this stretch was his consistency.
