Hard to compare Markstrom to Kipper. Kipper was a really special goalie. He would have the occasional bad game, but his mental game was so strong that you could pretty much count on him following a bad game with a shutout in the next outing. There's no goalie in Flames history I would take over Kipper, including Vernon who also probably deserves a spot in the HoF. Markstrom doesn't need to measure up to that. He just needs to get back to being a legit #1.
