Knights’ Austin Elliott named OHL Goaltender of the Week
Toronto, ON – The Ontario Hockey League today announced that Austin Elliott of the London Knights is the OHL Goaltender of the Week for the fourth time this season, playing to a 1-1 record along with a 2.54 goals-against average and .914 save percentage.
Elliott made 53 saves over two games in the OHL Championship Series last week, splitting the series 1-1. He stopped 22 of 25 shots in a 4-2 loss to Oshawa on Thursday, marking his first playoff loss and first defeat since February 2nd. The 6-foot-1, 189lb. goaltender bounced back on Saturday, turning aside 31 shots to earn third star honours in a 5-2 win to even the series.
A soon-to-be 21-year-old from Strathmore, Alberta, Elliott posted an outstanding regular season with a 32-1-0-0 record, three shutouts, a 2.10 goals-against average, and a .924 save percentage. He’s remained nearly perfect in the playoffs, going 13-1 with one shutout, a 2.34 goals-against average, and a .906 save percentage. The Knights acquired the overage netminder from the Barrie Colts, who had claimed him off CHL waivers in early October. Elliott joined the OHL after beginning his junior career with the WHL’s Saskatoon Blades.
