Markstrom made 37 saves in a 5-3 win over New Jersey on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
His coach was glowing after the game. "This is the best since I've been around [Markstrom] that he's been with us that I've seen him play," Calgary coach Ryan Huska said after the game. "He's been giving us a chance to win every night and that's why you have a goaltender of that caliber." It was Markstrom's third straight win after back-to-back four-goal losses. He has allowed just four goals allowed on this three-game streak, and as expected has been the backbone of the Flames recent strong play.

EDGE Analysis
Markstrom was unbeatable in his final start before the All-Star break Jan. 27 against Chicago, turning aside all 32 shots he faced en route to a 1-0 shutout victory. He'll try to earn his 15th win of the season in a rough road matchup with a Boston team that's 16-4-3 at home this year.

Markstrom posted a 32-save shutout in Saturday's 1-0 win over the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
Markstrom did what he had to against a Blackhawks team that lost for the 20th straight road game. The 33-year-old netminder had allowed eight goals across his previous two starts, so this was a much-needed show of confidence between the pipes. He's up to two shutouts this season and 20 in his career. Markstrom is 14-13-2 with a 2.60 GAA and a .912 save percentage through 29 contests. He'll likely continue to operate as the Flames' No. 1 netminder following the All-Star break.
