No, Glen suggested they should, which is why I quoted HIS post first.cprice12 wrote:I didn't say they will send Elliott down.

Tough shit if he doesn't clear waivers. I find it very hard to believe that, barring an injury, he'll ever play another game in the note.
If Allen starts to struggle, the Blues will probably send him down and let Elliott try to win the backup job back.
You're talking about if they send Allen down, etc. I got that.
If you noticed, I quoted both of you because I was trying to figure out what the ramifications would be if we did and threw it out there because the subject was on sending a player down and the whole waivers system. I don't know it very well, so I brought it up.
Make sense now?
