Lightning's Brian Elliott: Tending twine Thursday

Elliott will start Thursday's preseason game versus the Predators, Gabby Shirley of Bally Sports Florida reports.

Elliott enters the 2022-23 campaign as the presumptive backup to superstar goalie Andrei Vasilevskiy. While Elliott's role is secure, he's likely to see only 20-25 games during the season, so he's not on the season-long fantasy radar except as a streaming option when he starts.
