"First-year pro beginning to catch up to pro game. Has NHL potential, but playing for poor team." (The Hockey News Future Watch 1999)
"A big goalie who positions himself well, Elliott has what it takes to one day attain backup status in the NHL. The 205th pick in the 1994 draft enjoyed a solid rookie season with a so-so Adirondack club last season. Needs a little work on his quickness and post-to-post movement." (The Sports Forecaster 1999-2000, p. 159)
"If the Wings weren't deep in goalies, Elliot might already have made his NHL debut. He has more than met expectations in Manitoba. "He has done everything we could have asked," [Detroit assistant GM Jim] Nill said. That said, the Wings would like to see Elliot improve his puckhandling skills and play around the net. "The good thing is you can work on those any day," Nill said. "But his overall skills stopping the puck are good."" (The Hockey News Future Watch 2000)
"Splitting time in Houston with Frederic Chabot to form solid one-two combination." (Nicholas J. Cotsonika, The Hockey News Future Watch 2001)
