Elliott allowed four goals on 32 shots in the Flames loss to the Hurricanes. Chad Johnson has started three of the last four games, but it looks like they’ll go back to Elliott tonight. Elliott is winless with a 4.72 GAA and .839 SV% in his first three starts in a Flames uniform. Tonight he would face a Blackhawks team that is 3-3-0 while averaging 3.67 goals per game so far.

Elliott allowed four goals on 28 shots in the Flames loss to the Oilers last Friday. Elliott’s Flames career has not gotten off to the start that his owners hoped for. He has allowed a combined 10 goals on 55 shots for an ugly .818 SV%. The veteran will look to bounce-back against a Hurricanes team that is 0-1-2 despite scoring 3.00 goals per game to start the year.

Elliott was torched for six goals on 27 shots in his Flames’ debut on Wednesday. The Flames went on to lose 7-4 to the Oilers, but it can’t be pinned on Elliott. Calgary left their netminder hung out to dry on multiple occasions and one goal was a Connor McDavid penalty shot. With the same opponent tonight, Elliott looks like a risky start, but the Flames should be better in front of him in this one—they frankly can’t be worse.

Elliott always split time in his five years with the Blues, never starting more than 45 games in a single year, but that will likely change this year.

He draws a tough assignment on opening night, vs. Connor McDavid and an improved Oilers squad.
