EDGE Analysis

Markstrom faced a season-low number of shots, making his path to victory a little easier. He had gone 0-3-1 in his previous four games. The Swede improved to 9-7-2 with a 2.77 GAA and a .909 save percentage in 18 games. New head coach Darryl Sutter wants to instill a defensively responsible structure into the Flames, which could help Markstrom put up better numbers over the second half of the season.
