He has been outplayed by opposing goalies. Albeit part of it is bad luck that those are the two goalies the Flames have had to face.

You just don't get it and are blinded by your Markstrom hate.
Just because he didn't have to make nearly as many difficult saves as Oettinger doesn't mean he was outplayed. He played well but didn't have to play as well as Oettinger did because Oettinger faced way more shots.
With Smith both goalies didn't play well in game 1. Markstrom was in longer so it looks worse for him. The last two games Smith hasn't faced the same chances that Markstrom has. Change goalies and the same outcome happens.
