I still look back to that game against the Sharks where Wolf referenced "He wasn't expecting to start", then Markstrom was going around handing out pucks and being very chatty in warm up (which people have said is not the norm when he's not starting), and the team looked absolutely flat and defeated that night.

You had 3-4 different posters on CP all stating something was going down that night too (Sec214, Dis, Rasta, and one other), and I heard from a different person that night that it really seemed like something was "really close".

I think he and the team thought he was being moved that day or the next, it fell apart, and there were some rumors that I heard that he wasn't really happy with how that whole thing went down.

Seems that he might be confirming it a bit today.
