I think there's bigger issues to worry about such as the general team actually showing up and playing to their abilities in the playoffs for a change. What is the metric here for this anyway? 7 starts would be a fireable offense for you, but 6 would be ok? None of this makes any sense when it's more about games played / over a specific period of time.
At any rate, I'd be shocked if Vladar doesn't get 4 (maybe even 5) starts down the stretch, but is even 7 starts over the next 20-21 days before the playoffs begin really a heavy workload for Markstrom either way? I don't see it. For a high end starting goalie that is about as good as it gets.
