Elliott stopped 28 shots and led the St. Louis Blues over Ottawa, 3-1, on Tuesday.
David Perron scored twice and Chris Porter also lit the lamp for the Blues, who had lost three of four coming in. St. Louis moved to 10-0-2 against the Eastern Conference this season.
Craig Anderson, who was acquired from Colorado in the Elliott trade, allowed two goals on four shots and was quickly pulled in favor of Alex Auld, who made 13 saves.
Daniel Alfredsson scored the lone goal for Ottawa, which has lost a season- high seven straight games.
