But that doesnt matter now because he no longer has whatever he had going right with him last season.

He didn't finish 2nd in voting because he was sheltered, he earned that nomination. Anyways, obviously Markstrom has struggled at times this year but the team defense has also been an issue all season. Way too many Grade A chances out of nowhere. I also don't recall exactly how many times last year the team let a 2 goal lead slip away like last night, I'm not sure they did that once. This is a very spotty, inconsistent team with multiple warts.
