This tells me NJ is going to be hell bent on getting Markstrom. A little insight into how New Jersey views Markstrom. Brodeur thinks #1 goalies need to play more games vs 1A and 1B set-ups. Seems Brodeur is a fan of Marky and views him in rare air:

“So these guys are playing 55 games. They should be playing 65 to 70 games like we did.”....“I think we baby our goalies,” Brodeur said. “I see it. I’m part of it. It’s like, my goalie coach will say, ‘He’s played five games the past eight days …’ I’m like, ‘So?’”.....“It’s a good reality now — you need to have two goalies,” he conceded. “I think that’s where it gets skewed. Like, it’s hard to find that No. 1 goalie. You get it in Nashville. You get it in Tampa. You get it in Calgary. There’s a couple of places that have them. But there’s not many. A lot of them are tandems.
