Now in his 12th season in the National Hockey League and third with the Philadelphia Flyers, goaltender Brian Elliott is a veteran of 471 regular season games and 45 games in the Stanley Cup playoffs. A two-time Masterton Trophy nominee (both with the St. Louis Blues and with the Flyers), he's been everything from a backup to a split-time starter and Jennings Trophy winner (2011-12 with St. Louis) as a starter over the course of his career. As a Flyer, he dealt with major injury issues in each of of his first two seasons that cost him large segments of missed time. Elliott is nothing if not a warrior.
