After three years with the Philadelphia Flyers, Elliott will look to solidify the goaltending situation for the reigning Cup champions behind Conn Smythe winner Andrei Vasilevskiy.

Last season with Philadelphia, Elliott appeared in 30, winning 15 of them. He posted a 3.06 goals-against average and a .889 save percentage.
