elliot sounds like done deeal for our backup get numbers when can
hearing 1 yr 900k

 

[ccman68]

we were never gonna go after anyone too expensive for a backup so this is good enough for me

 

[JoVel]

Tampa Bay, where backup goaltenders go to retire.

Capfroendly has Elliot for us. Better than Philly signing Martin Jones lol

 

[Hoek]

Hopefully can bounce back after a couple rough years in Philly, otherwise he won't be any better than McBackup.

 

[LightningStrikes]

Awesome, can’t be worse than McE and Gibs

 

[JFleegs]

I liked him when we was on Binghamton way back in the day. Can’t believe it’s been that long and how old he is and I am

 

[ultra63]

Awesome, can’t be worse than McE and Gibs

It would be nice to have a back up with a save % over. 900

 

[Discipline]

Ehhh.... ehhhh..... eh.... ok.

He won't be playing infront of that tire fire Phili. He still got them some wins. I think he'll be alright here. Better than McBackup. We needed someone who can play 25-30 games for us.

 

[Lightning1995]

Was hoping for better to be honest, thought the Lightning would try to invest a bit more in the backup position next season

 

[T REX]

He is absolutely worse

.889% save

He is a pylon

 

[DaBolts]

Ehhh.... ehhhh..... eh.... ok.

It's an upgrade over McBackup. Not a yuge one, I wanted Holtby, but it's an upgrade.

Keep in mind Philthadelphia allowed more odd man rushes than any team I've seen in years. They were just not a sound team in concept or any other way. Will Elliot win us a Cup on his own? No. But he might go 15-6 with a .915ish save percentage to give Vasi a break.

I'll be praying to sweet baby jesus that he's not playing in front of that tire fire Sustr.

 

[Rschmitz]

Just make sure Vasy is wrapped nice and tight

I'd rather have Elliot. 900k is abled to be buried in the minors. Helpful when you have half a dozen goalies.... -A confused stars fan.

Oh for sure.

I'll take it. Kinda eh, but I'll give it the benefit of a doubt since he came from Philly of all places.

We can't send him down. Too many other players we need 2 way flexibility with.

Investing more would be a waste of money. This will be fine.

What do you mean here?
