So on the topic of Markstrom, that Kevin Woodley from InGoal was discussing Markstrom and his potential fit with Sutter
One of the things he thought may be an adjustment was the general low event nature of Darryl’s usual teams. The thought was that part of what worked well for Markstrom on Vancouver was the high number of shots from the outside, blended in with a number of higher danger chances, basically that he thrived under the volume of activity. The adjustment he brought up that he thought it would be worth monitoring was staying sharp during the stretches of inactivity, where the team tried to keep shots and chances against down
He noted that Rinne dealt with something similar when Laviolette came to the Preds, and tried to keep engaged by handling the pucks rimmed in
Also noted Vasilevsky had a similar adjustment but dealt with it with his psychologist
