I think Markstrom is good enough.
I don't think there are many playoff series we'd go into where I'd say "Markstrom will be the difference in this series".
Yet somehow a certain poster keeps throwing a tantrum out of me comparing Markstrom to a Chris Osgood.
As if Osgood didn't win multiple Stanley Cups as a starter.

Honestly I find both extremes in this argument kind of silly.
