EDGE Analysis
Markstrom has conceded two or fewer goals in 10 of his last 12 outings, posting a 9-2-1 record, 1.50 GAA and two shutouts over that stretch.

Markstrom stopped 21 of 23 shots in Monday's 3-2 win over the Kraken.

Markstrom bounced back from two straight road losses, against Anaheim and San Jose, and he recorded his seventh win over his last nine appearances. He's gone 7-2-0 with an elite 1.46 GAA and a pristine .927 save percentage in that span, so fantasy managers should continue to trust the 34-year-old netminder.

Markstrom made 21 saves in a 3-2 loss to the Sharks on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Markstrom has lost two in a row, but he remains third in the NHL with a sparkling 2.18 GAA and second in wins (19). His team wasn't great in front of him, and there were some unlucky bounces off the officials that contributed to San Jose's goals. Plus the winning goal went in with just 25 seconds left in the third period. Markstrom will leave this behind him and be dialed in next time out.

Markstrom stopped 29 of 31 shots in Friday's 4-2 win over the Hurricanes.
EDGE Analysis
Markstrom allowed two goals at even strength in Friday's win but was fantastic overall against a high-powered offense. It was the Swedish netminder's sixth consecutive win. The 34-year-old is 8-0-1 in December and has turned aside 171 of 181 shots on goal in that span. Overall, Markstrom has a 19-6-2 record, .914 save percentage and 2.11 GAA through 27 appearances. The former Flame trails only Connor Hellebuyck for the league lead in wins (22). Jake Allen will most likely draw the road start in the second half of the home-and-home set with Carolina on Saturday.
