Markstrom allowed four goals on 31 shots in a loss to Washington last Saturday. He will get the nod against the Jets tonight, which isn't too bad of a matchup for him. However it is hard to trust a Panthers goalie in fantasy, especially given how bad their offense is (23rd in goals/per game).

Markstrom has won three straight games with a 2.66 GAA and .925 SV%. In his only start vs. the Caps this season he allowed two goals on the first two shots and was pulled. He will look for a better result this time around, but the Capitals are one of the NHL's hottest teams right now. They have won six out of their last eight games.

Markstrom allowed four goals on 40 shots in a winning effort in his last start vs. the Sabres. He will go head-to-head with Martin Brodeur tonight, so be wary of the matchup.

Markstrom is doing his best Panthers-era Luongo impression, posting mediocre win totals (3 wins in 11 starts) but solid peripherals (2.59 GAA and .921 SV%). He has a nice matchup against a struggling Sabres squad and could make for a good spot start if you're in a pinch.

The Islanders added two late empty netters to give them a 3-0 win over the Panthers on Sunday. Markstrom played very well allowing just one goal on 35 shots. He will be back in goal tonight vs. the Maple Leafs.

Markstrom has been solid, giving up just one goal in each of his last two starts.

Enjoy your coffee! Yesterday was my twin sons, Derek & Shane, birthday and they played in a basketball tournament final game but lost. However, my son Shane hit an almost 3/4 of the length-of-the-court shot off the glass as time expired at the half. That is something that he will always remember. Happy Birthday boys! I'm so impressed how Ottawa has maintained their high level of play without its major stars. Kudos Paul MacLean! Daniel Alfredsson and Sergei Gonchar have really shown their leadership skills this year. What has happened to Tampa Bay after they did so good early on? Robin Lehner, Jacob Markstrom and Jake Allen are going to be real studs in net as they gain more experience. The Minnesota Wild are starting to roll much like they did in the first half of last season. read more
