It's no surprise that the Blues have won since Brian Elliott took over in net for the injured Jaroslav Halak in Game 2. The "backup" goaltender is fourth in the league with a .944 save percentage, and second with a 1.51 goals-against average. He has given up four total goals in his three starts this series. If the Sharks have any hope of getting back in this series, putting pressure on Elliott has to be priority No. 1.
