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 third time this season, playing to a 2-0 record along with a 2.00 goals-against average and .920 save percentage.
Backstopping the Knights to their third consecutive OHL Championship Series appearance, Elliott made a total of 46 saves last week. He stopped 21 of the 23 shots he faced on Monday in a 3-2 win over the Kitchener Rangers. The 6-foot-1, 189lb. netminder returned between the pipes on Wednesday, making 25 saves in a 4-2 victory to help the Knights clinch the Wayne Gretzky Trophy as Western Conference champions.
A 20-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 perfect in the playoffs, going 12-0 with one shutout, a 2.31 goals-against average, and a .904 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.
