Markstrom allowed five goals on 34 shots in Monday's loss to the Wild.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom carried a four-game winning streak coming into Monday's tilt, but he ran up against a reenergized Wild squad playing their first game under interim coach John Torchetti. The 26-year-old has mostly proven to be reliable as Ryan Miller's backup, but he doesn't figure to see consistent playing time down the stretch of the season.
