Been hearing about the Pens' tough choice with two goalies they'll want to protect in an expansion draft. Am I crazy to think the Blues' choice is going to be even harder? Elliott's the same age as Fleury, is coming off one of the best seasons ever, is performing great in the playoffs and has an awesomely low contract for next year. Maybe the cap hit wouldn't be a consideration for Vegas, but it is for us. When I watch him playing, I'm not seeing "twilight of his career", either. I think he's got years left as our starter. Allen, meanwhile, I still don't know if I trust. If Elliott's capable of being the starter for the next 3-4 years at least, we've got some guys coming up behind Allen who might be even better candidates to take over at that point.
What do other fans here think? Whether we go any further than the second round or not, would you want them to potentially leave Elliott unprotected for an expansion draft?
