Report: Flames, Elliott discussing contract extension
@NHLFlames
The Calgary Flames aren't wasting time in locking up goalie Brian Elliott.
Acquired from the St. Louis Blues in June, the Flames have already begun negotiations with Elliott over a contract extension, reports Andy Strickland of Fox Sports Midwest.
The 31-year-old is a pending unrestricted free agent, with a current salary cap hit of $2.5 million. He will make his debut with the Flames next month.
Elliott appeared in 41 games with the Blues last season, posting a 23-8-2 record, alongside a .930 save percentage and 2.07 goals-against average.
