In the mean time, Vladar is playing well. Play him more. If the worst thing that happens is both guys play 41 games, that’s fine. Both now and moving forward. The days of Markstrom playing 60+ may be (should be?) done, but let’s not put him on the cart just yet.

That's actually an issue as being mentally strong is a requirement of a top starting goaltender and he's a veteran that should be over this kind of stuff. He's oscillated from bad season, good season, bad season, and that's not good enough as this team needs steadier goaltending year to year. I think at the minimum the team needs to resort to a 1A/1B situation here as Markstrom has played a role in way too many losses this season.
