Blues Sign Elliot for Two More Years
|
|
Not content to wait until the offseason, the St. Louis Blues locked up All-Star Goalie Brian Elliot for two more years on Wednesday. For a team that is so committed to defense, I am happy to see them make this commitment to Elliot. At 15-5-1 with a goals against average of 1.68, a .937 save percentage and five shutouts, Elliot has responded excellently to his new team. Furthermore, Jaroslav Halak has also been playing excellent hockey of late, giving the Blues a fabulous one-two punch in net. Given the Blues excellent progress so far (60 points-good for third in the NHL), this show of confidence in Elliot can only make him more comfortable. Its full speed ahead for the Blues, let's hold on and enjoy the ride. Go Blues!

The Brian Elliott contract breaks down as follows: it's a $3.6 million extension 1.7 million next season and 1.9 million the year after. This is a great deal for the St. Louis Blues even if Elliott is half as good as the season for the rest of the term.
Thanks for the details Landon, this is a great deal. The Blues are really firing on all cylinders now.
Thanks for the update, James!
