He made a mistake that almost every goalie has. He's been very good playing the puck this year and moreso lately. I can only recall one other like that all year.

This includes on the first shot of the game.

Markstrom had the team where they could win, which is all you can ask. And made a few key stops in the second and third to make it that way, just like Saros. He has nothing to do with how Saros plays. Andersson had Saros down and out and couldn't score.
When the game was there to be won, the Flames sent out a guy with 25 points in 74 games this season, mostly from tipping and shoving in rebounds. The Preds sent out a kid with 41 points in 49 games who had a dynamite move.
