Sign Brian Elliott to minimum salary?

VikingKarlsson · 06-28-2011, 06:46 AM

Elliott was not signed by Colorado. Does Ottawa sign him for a 1 year deal?

**Classless Manked** · 06-28-2011, 06:49 AM

Hopefully not.

I seem to remember him ignoring the media in Ottawa after he got traded. What did he expect?

internetdotcom · 06-28-2011, 06:50 AM

The only reason to sign him would be as the starter, in order to nosedive us to Yakupov.

Hutz · 06-28-2011, 06:59 AM

I'd be perfectly happy to have him back, not sure he would be, though.

Marty Straka · 06-28-2011, 07:00 AM

No thanks... That bridge was blown up a while ago.

BK201 · 06-28-2011, 07:03 AM

No he can't win we need someone that can take a 10 game stretch and win at least 5 games if Anderson was injured.

trentmccleary · 06-28-2011, 07:07 AM

Why?
I don't believe that he had any impact on being here, has potential to be appreciably better or was missed. Not only that, he may still have some misguided dreams of becoming a starter... which is obviously never going to happen here now.

Iamok · 06-28-2011, 07:20 AM

Guy's confidence was already shattered. Pretty sure going back to the team that gave up on him won't help.

**OmniSens** · 06-28-2011, 07:22 AM

Yeah, lets sign him to a 3 way

NHL, AHL, and my home league, maybe he can play goalie for our team

BumperStumper · 06-28-2011, 07:27 AM

I was one of the people that supported him way too long, I always thought he was going to turn it around and become a decent goalie - but he pretty conclusively showed last year that he won't. I think we are much better to turn the page and try someone else

Lexicon Devil · 06-28-2011, 07:48 AM

The guy is mediocre at best. I can't understand what anyone ever saw in him - wishful thinking, I guess. The guy has no starter potential, and if we are looking for a backup goalie there are better options out there.

I award you no points and may god have mercy on your soul.

TheOneFootedSauce25 · 06-28-2011, 08:20 AM

I would rather see Jakub Klepis come over from Russia and play in net than have Elliot back

NyQuil · 06-28-2011, 08:22 AM

I think not.

Bazel5 · 06-28-2011, 08:26 AM

Elliot had his opportunity with the Sens. I would pass on him.

Went to high school with him at Newmarket High, very nice guy. I hope he finds success elsewhere.

Jerk Store · 06-28-2011, 08:28 AM

I love how Fuhr will probably not be posting in the thread

But seriously, no thanks. And the conspiracy theorist in me can't help but surface a little seeing as Colorado didn't re-sign him, supporting my point that they went out and got the worst goalie available to tank properly.

HappyDude · 06-28-2011, 08:36 AM

Q: Do you seriously think anyone wants to see him back here or he himself would return?

A: No

Senasnore · 06-28-2011, 08:41 AM

No - that's just wrong...what is it with wanting our old goalie corpses turn into zombies??? Emery, Lalime, Elliott - just put a friggin silver stake thru their hearts and move on....oye...

Tundraman · 06-28-2011, 08:46 AM

It would be clear sign the Sens are aiming for a top pick next year.

LOL...Billy Madison...you made my day.

Indy on the Road · 06-28-2011, 08:56 AM

Yes, of course.

Liliaceae · 06-28-2011, 08:57 AM

hahah.. you're joking right?

JoeSakic · 06-28-2011, 09:01 AM

Ridiculous notion. Why is it the second any former player becomes available inevitably we see this type of thread or suggestion? He's gone for a reason.

TSA0402 · 06-28-2011, 09:05 AM

Honestly I'd rather sign Leclaire if that is the case. If not just to see what kind of creative ways he can go on the DL from the bench.

Caseus · 06-28-2011, 09:08 AM

Absolutely not. That bridge is burned.
