You're starting really early with minimizing every bad goal Markstrom lets in. There's good reason for Flames fans to be more concerned about Markstrom than Jrrs fans would be about Hellebuyck

Agreed we should not be panicking yet about Markstrom. Although that 4th goal was very reminiscent of last season. Forgetting about the quality of the scoring chance… it was the timing that hurts more. Felt like the flames constantly struggled to build momentum last year. Always allowed the first goal against early in the game despite outplaying teams by a wide margin. And it felt like every time the flames tied the game or took a lead… the opposing team would score 1 minute later.
