Markstrom will defend the blue paint during Thursday's home game versus the Stars, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom has played well recently, picking up back-to-back wins over the Coyotes and the Blackhawks while posting an admirable 1.50 GAA and .940 save percentage. He'll try to secure a third straight victory in a home matchup with a slumping Dallas team that's lost three of its last four contests.
