I'd prefer to see the team run with Vladar for a stretch just to see if he can pick it up if he gets to play more. We haven't really seen if he can get the rust out if he plays more, which is what a lot of goalies need. I just don't see the down side in trying. The worst case scenario is that it doesn't work and nothing changes.

The team is still trying to make a playoff push.
If they think Markstrom gives them a better chance to win (which the data suggests) then they are going to run with him.
He's been good enough this season. There's simply no reason to give the backup a run, particularly when he's performed worse.
