Two of those were scored after Kuemper was removed from the game. Up until that point the story of the game was two goalies having a goalie battle and our goalie winning it. It well could have gone to OT with Kuemper in net the whole game, which really drives home how important strong goaltending is. Put Markstrom in, and we are probably trailing when Keumper leaves the game, and suddenly those rush chances leading to goals 3,4 do not happen due to the opponent going into a 1-3-1
