I think the title was a typo as there was a rush to get this up. Kevin Weekes is notorious for being first and teasing moves. He almost never teases with nothing to follow

...that's effectively the point.

It's just Weekes doing the eyeball thing, but Sec also had an update on Marky a few days ago...

Updated the thread title to be a bit more descriptive.

Interesting.

No matter what happens here I hope that it's good for both the team and Markstrom.

Markstrom has been nothing but a true pro since being here even when things were tough last season.

Maybe Kevin Weekes is suggesting we all direct an open eye towards Markstrom's fantastic play of late?

Probably just means to keep an eye on Markstrom; and lazily did it in a way Gen Z’ers can understand.

They need to move him quickly before the rest of the league discovers he's the second-best goalie in the family and it wrecks his value.

Came in for the "dumb titled thread ”advertisement.

Until Leslie posts the eyes I'm not convinced. It would be strange to trade Markstrom in the middle of the dads trip.

If Markstrom doesn’t play in Vegas tomorrow, I will very logically presume that a trade is on pause until the dad/mentor trip is done.

His value is at an all time high though..

The goalie market is as soft as it would ever be and Markstrom is likely target #1 for any team looking for a goalie at the moment.

I really don't know what to think here.

What I don't understand is why Weekes added a period after the emoji. Is it a mole by the eye? A zit? What's he trying to tell us about Jacob's skin??

It's not like he's a child.. He's a professional athlete in a professional league. Who cares if it's dads trip? I'm sure he understands

If Marky is indeed getting traded, I’ll honestly miss the guy. He’s had his ups and downs in net, and the downs were really, really bad. But you couldn’t deny his passion and his want to win for the club. Best goalie we’ve had since Kipper
