Now 16th in league with goals saved above expected. Just above Sorokin and just below Ullmark.

Although I have not seen stats to back it up. The key for Markstrom is to not overplay him. Having Vanacek or Schmid as a capable backup insures that for NJ.
One of Vladar or Markstrom has to go before next season. Makes no sense to keep Wolf in AHL another year. He needs starts to build his NHL game. |
Fair. I just don't like Markstrom's bad goals. They're totally amateur and can be a letdown when they happen every other game. It kills his confidence for that game and also let's down the team's confidence as well. Plus the playoffs the past couple years has been atrocious. So I'm not convinced his confidence is back.
