Personally I think he made a few saves he shouldn't have and was great on the night.
But that goal wasn't great.

I agree, it was saveable, but overall goaltending was not the reason for the loss. It was the type of goal that Markstrom has let in several times this season as well, but Sutter didn’t come out and throw him under the bus right away.
With Sutter he has earned the benefit of the doubt in the way he handles players, but it is unusual the double standard he seems to have with a young goalie who has to perform after weeks between starts at times.
