Brian Elliott

Brian Elliott on netminder duties Friday night for Flames

Calgary Flames goalie Brian Elliott will start against the New Jersey Devils on Friday night.

What It Means:

Elliott has stopped 53-of-56 shots during a two-game winning streak, bringing his record 10-12-2 on the year. He's mostly struggled this season, evidenced by a .896 save percentage and 2.80 goals-against average that are both on pace to be the second-worst marks of his career. Despite that, Elliott has a decent chance to keep the good times rolling tonight versus a Devils team that has the third-worst offense in the league (2.24 goals per game).

Elliott is our sixth-ranked fantasy option among Friday's eight starting goalies. We project him for 23.6 saves, 2.5 goals against and a 40.0 percent chance of scoring a win.
