Red-hot Elliott

-

Flames goaltender Brian Elliott’s 11-game winning streak snapped in Calgary’s 4-2 loss at Washington Tuesday night, but he’s 15-2-1 with a 1.99 goals-against average and .932 save percentage over his past 24 games. He’s a big reason Calgary will be back in the playoffs.

“He’s just real dialed in,” firstyear coach Glen Gulutzan said. “It’s the time of year, I think, a competitiv­e guy enjoys the most, this last little stretch and into the playoffs. So I think it’s the time of year where he feels real dialed in with his game.”
