This fan base needs to stop expecting one single player to save the franchise and then turning on them when they inevitably can’t.

It’s a team game.

Fair enough. I'm just worried because he hasn't looked like himself since returning from injury. Here is hoping there are no long term effects that hamper him in the coming years.

I'm not hanging my hat on any opinion I've read about Markstrom so far tonight. The entire team is a pile of dog turds.

Really I just want this season to end to see what they're going to do to correct this sinking ship.

Agreed, expecting Markstrom to make a routine save is too much

This fan base is spoiled with all the success

Brad is done after this season. Pizza sounds like a good business.

I'll give Markstrom a pass this season, but he's been objectively pretty bad overall.

It reminds me of Smith in 2019. Smith deserved to be criticized for how he played the first half of the season but it was embarrassing as a fan to see him get blamed for every goal no matter what and then when Rittich let in the same type of goal he had no chance.

I watched the highlights of the first goal and no wonder people are salty about the second. First goal was brutal.

Wrong. Markstroms job is to stop the puck. He hasn't done that well at all tonight.

Wow. So many terrible passes on both sides.

A classic case of "who wants it less?"...

Good save on PP by Markstrom because of the rebound control mainly.

A lot don't seem to like Stone much, but I think he's really solid. Awesome bang for your buck.

Weber's shot is such a liability for all the other players out there.

Last game vs Montreal Hrudey talked about the long list of teammates that Weber has injured over his career... to me that means his shot is a detriment more than anything. If he's shooting THAT hard (and high) with teammates in front, it's doing more damage than good. Feel free to safe the hardest shots when it's safer to do so.

Backlund afraid of getting hit again. Dumped it behind the net while in the zone, thinking he was going to get hit. He wasnt, and basically a giveaway.
