Brian Elliott

Calgary will attempt to topple Kings with Brian Elliott in post

Calgary Flames goalie Brian Elliott has been named the starter for Wednesday night's matchup with the Los Angeles Kings.

What It Means:

Over his last 16 starts, Elliott has gone an absurd 14-1-1 with a pair of shutouts and a .937 (445-of-475) save percentage (SV%). He shouldn't have a problem keeping that up tonight against the NHL's sixth-worst offense (2.39 goals per game). For the season as a whole, Elliott is now 25-14-3 with a 2.47 GAA and a .911 SV%.

numberFire's models give Elliott a 54.0 percent chance of earning a third straight win tonight. We project him for 2.1 goals allowed and 23.4 saves as the third-ranked fantasy option out of the eight starters in action.
