Who has won a playoff series isn't how GMs should be looking at it. It's who will win a playoff series that hasn't happened yet. And there are very few goaltenders left in the league older than Markstrom.

There are 9 goalies older than Markstrom. Out of those goalies, over half are still doing quite well. Talbot(Age - 35, sv% .927), Quick(37, .922), Varlamov(35, .922), Bobrovsky(34, .911), and Reimer(35, .911).
Teams I see being interested in Markstrom with a $3M x 3 price tag, that would be willing to give up picks and prospects for a quick fix: EDM, NJD, CAR.
Teams that might bet tempted if the price is right: SEA, OTT(If we take back Forsberg), LAK(insurance/replacement for Talbot).
