You are missing the point. It doesn’t matter how great Oettinger was - it has no bearing on Markstrom’s play (and vice versa). Markstrom doesn’t have to be better than the other goalies. He has to be better than the players shooting at him. Whether he is better than the other goalie is 50% out of his control. And in that series there was nothing more he could do.
