Markstrom stopped 41 of 43 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Flyers.

EDGE Analysis

Overtime continues to be the Flames' kryptonite, as Cam Atkinson struck 45 seconds into the extra session to hand Markstrom his fifth loss in his last six starts (1-2-3). The Swedish netminder still put in an excellent outing despite the sour ending. He has a 5-3-4 record with a 1.82 GAA and a .938 save percentage in 12 appearances. The Flames' road trip continues Tuesday in Buffalo, but head coach Darryl Sutter has proven unpredictable with how he distributes work between Markstrom and Daniel Vladar.

Markstrom will protect the road goal Tuesday versus the Flyers, Darren Haynes of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom has seen extended rest lately as Daniel Vladar started the last two contests. The 31-year-old Markstrom lost each of his two previous starts. The Flyers are 22nd in the league with an average of 2.77 goals per game this season, so this could be a chance for the Swede to get back on track.

Markstrom made 24 saves in a 4-2 loss to Montreal on Thursday. He allowed three goals.

EDGE Analysis

The game was knotted until the 12:08 mark of the third when Nick Suzuki banked a shot in off his pad on the power play. Markstrom has been outstanding so far this season. He is 5-3-3 with a sparking 1.81 GAA, .935 save percentage and four shutouts.

Markstrom will guard the road cage during Thursday's matchup with Montreal, Sportsnet's Eric Francis reports.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom was pretty solid in his last start Tuesday against the Sharks, stopping 22 of 24 shots, but he ultimately suffered his fifth loss of the season due to insufficient goal support from his teammates. The 31-year-old netminder will try to get back in the win column in a road game versus a struggling Canadiens club that's 2-5-1 at home this year.

Markstrom allowed two goals on 24 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Sharks. The last two goals were empty-netters.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom went eight games without a regulation loss prior to Tuesday's slip-up. The Swede dipped to 5-2-3 with a 1.69 GAA and a .940 save percentage in 10 appearances. He's made six straight starts, so it's fair to assume that he'll only start one of the Flames next two games when they face the Canadiens on Thursday and Maple Leafs on Friday.

Markstrom will tend the twine in Tuesday's home game versus the Sharks, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom shut out the Rangers with 22 saves in a 6-0 win Saturday, and he'll get a chance to build some momentum. The Swede has been one of the top goalies in the league, and he'll face a Sharks team still missing a large number of players due to Canada's national COVID-19 protocols related to entering the country.

Markstrom posted a 22-save shutout in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

While Markstrom didn't face a high shot volume, he had a handful of spectacular saves to keep a goose egg on the Rangers' side of the board. It was his career-high fourth shutout of the year, and the 12th in his career. Seven of those shutouts have come in the last two seasons. Markstrom improved to 5-1-3 with a 1.65 GAA and a .942 save percentage through nine starts. The Flames' current home stand ends Tuesday versus the Sharks -- the two days off make it likely he'll start that contest.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom will get the Rangers in their second half of a back-to-back after they lost 6-5 in overtime versus the Oilers on Friday. The 31-year-old has dropped his last two games in overtime, but he had won his prior four starts. This is still a difficult draw for Markstrom, especially since he's allowed seven goals in his last two contests.

Markstrom allowed four goals on 28 shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Stars.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom did well to keep things close enough for the Flames to come from behind in the third period, but his effort yielded just one standings point. The Swede has allowed seven goals on 50 shots in his last two contests after a run of allowing just one tally in four starts. He has a 4-1-3 record, a 1.85 GAA and a .936 save percentage in eight games, but his recent dip in quality could see Daniel Vladar earn a start in the near future.

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

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom wasn't great in his last start Tuesday against the Predators, surrendering three goals on just 22 shots en route to a 3-2 defeat. The 31-year-old netminder will try to bounce back and secure his fifth win of the season in a home matchup with a struggling Dallas squad that's lost four straight games.
