Maybe an average goalie loses the Penguins game. Or maybe they win it 4-3. Can't say. But maybe an average goalie wins the Nashville, Anaheim, Ducks games.
Flames dropped 11 goals on the rangers, no shutout needed.
Flames dropped 4 goals on the flyers, no shutout needed.
Red wings game was a Detroit team totally outclassed by Calgary.
A slightly different version of Flames team was 2nd in the NHL with 107 points a couple years ago with Smith lettinf in Beachballs half the year and David Rittich.
Enjoy the Markstrom shutouts. But don't pretend he is the primary reason for the Flames record.
QS are not a wierd stat. You can find me posting about them pretty deep into history.

Imo its pretty certain an average goalie loses the Pittsburg game...allowing goals changes the whole complexation of games too...Markstrom has made huge saves when it was tied or up a goal or two that if not made would have totally swung momentum.
Its telling for me that Markstrom is tying 100 year old records for shutouts with ridiculous numbers yet you aren't even willing to say he is a difference maker.
I never said the only difference maker
First his numbers weren't elite...now that they are new measures are coming up
Vladar has a 2.94 and .891
Markstrom has a 1.65 and .942
bit of a difference no?
That's not to say I hope Vladar does poorly
Next he will win the Vezina and it will be...big deal he will be overpaid in 5 seasons lol
