Markstrom was atrocious Tuesday, allowing a whopping seven goals on just 25 shots in a 7-2 loss to the visiting Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
The game was still within reach heading into the third period before the Rangers went off, victimizing Markstrom for four goals (on only seven shots) in the final frame. He actually played rather poorly in his last start (three goals on 26 shots, also against the Rangers) despite emerging as the victor, but he quite clearly wasn't as lucky in this one. All told, the Swedish netminder now owns a sub-.900 save percentage (.892) and a 2.82 GAA, so coupled with the fact that the Canucks are one of the lowest scoring teams in the league (with a corresponding terrible goal differential), it's probably best to avoid Markstrom for fantasy purposes at this point.
