It was clear to me that Edmonton was in Markstrom's head... going back into the regular season... he let in 5 and 6 goals against them in Calgary wins, and the only reason we won those was because we got 9 goals ourselves in both. He was cheating in the net - like I've never seen him do before, sunk in, where he let in a few goals over the pad and under the glove because of it.
I think we needed to start Vladar and was hammering for Sutter to do that, but he never did... Vladar played solid against Edmonton and Edmonton had Markstrom's number - it's as simple as that... I think the team would have responded positively too to a goalie change and it would have been a different series.
