Markstrom wasn't good, and his play cost us a W.
But this game is on Sutter - Markstrom should never have been in the net in the first place. And the complete lack of preparation for OT is on the coaching as well.
Sutter is just being stubborn at this point, and he's sinking the season. As Mr.Coffee said above, there is no meritocracy this year, Sutter is just determined to prove that his way is the only way.
And it's too bad, because this team is close - it's right there, with a season-saving winning streak just waiting for them to take it. But making the necessary changes just isn't on the table.
