We have not seen that Markstrom very much since he came here but I am not drawing conclusions based on 2 games.

Expectations? The Oilers have McJesus and he is what everyone pays attention to. The Flames also were not far removed from finishing first in the west
I’m not drawing conclusions based on 2 games either, I expect improvement
But I am fine to raise concerns based on 1 year and 2 games
It’d be great if Markstrom came out of the gates 2-0 with over .950 in that small sample like both Smith and Talbot. They will regress to the mean though
