Was a team issue not a goalie issue. A lot of blame is at Markstroms feet but really it was not all his fault.
His first shot or second shot faced would be a glorious scoring change usually with a player wide open.
I don't think that has gone unrecognized by the team or staff as that has been a theme this summer talking about tweaking how we defend and letting our goalies see some shots.
Can't really expect a goalie to sit for 10 minutes doing nothing and all of a sudden face a barrage of high quality chances.
