Taking stats from a 20 game stretch with the Flames playing terrible Vs. Hiller's best season with the Flames, one of the very few seasons in the last 30 years they actually played well. Maybe check Hiller's stats when the Flames fell back to earth the next season.

Actually, I take back my agreement (in regards to Markstrom being slightly overrated this year).
90.7% is not bad this year, it's
exactly league average.
And it's above average for the Canadian division.
Do I think it's a bit of a stretch to call Markstrom the runaway MVP?
Maybe. 90.7% won't get you anywhere near Vezina conversations, regardless of the quality of defense.
But I guess no one else has really been an enticing "MVP" candidate on the Flames.
