I think at the end of the season his stats will look better than they do now, but the stats are really tough to parse for a goalie like Markstrom, because his sometimes wild swings in play get lost in averages. I would expect by season's end for his GSAA and save percentage to rank higher than his QS%, for example.

He's also been playing hurt.
