Markstrom will guard the road goal during Thursday's matchup with the Oilers, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom was solid in his last start Monday versus Montreal, stopping 22 of 24 shots, but he ultimately suffered his 19th 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 tough road matchup with an Edmonton team that's averaging 3.48 goals per game at home this campaign, seventh in the NHL.

Markstrom turned aside 22 shots in Monday's 2-1 loss to the Canadiens.

EDGE Analysis

The 31-year-old netminder allowed two goals or less for the eighth straight start, but Markstrom didn't get enough offensive support to record his sixth win during that stretch. The hot streak has helped steady his ratios on the season, but Markstrom still carries a fairly mediocre 2.73 GAA and .903 save percentage.

Markstrom will patrol the crease for Monday's home matchup with the Canadiens.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom has gone seven straight games allowing three or fewer goals, posting a 1.72 GAA and .925 save percentage in the process. He's faced Montreal four times during that span, going 3-1-0 while allowing seven goals on 99 shots. Still, the 31-year-old is sporting a .903 save percentage and 2.75 GAA in 35 appearances on the year.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom enjoyed a stellar performance on the way to his second consecutive victory against the Canadiens, allowing just a Nick Suzuki rebound goal in the first period and a Tyler Toffoli power-play strike in the second. Markstrom, who improved to 17-16-2 with a 2.75 GAA and .903 save percentage, will likely be back between the pipes Saturday for the series finale against the Habs.

The 31-year-old Swede improved to 16-16-2 with a 2.77 GAA and a .902 save percentage in 34 games overall. It's not out of the question for Markstrom to start back-to-back games -- the Flames are desperate for points in the playoff chase, so he could start again Saturday versus the Canadiens. If not, Louis Domingue would likely get the nod.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom has played well lately and gets a nice opportunity to stay hot against an Ottawa team that's bringing up the rear in the North Division with 34 points in 45 games.
