I actually don't think Markstrom was that bad. But when you are paid $6 million, you have to play better than the other goalie consistently. Not just occasionally.

he's paid to be elite
and he's typically given the luxury of having less of a workload than the guy at the other end
at the same time there is usually a good number of high danger chances in that handful of shots
I don't blame him, but at the same time I can't honestly say he's playing quite to the level he's being paid to be at
