Markstrom will start Monday's road contest in New York.
EDGE Analysis
Markstrom's last regulation loss came on Oct. 27. Since then, the 28-year-old netminder has made six starts and posted a 4-0-2 record. He'll face a Rangers team that's averaging 2.71 goals, fifth worst in the league. On paper, this is a good matchup for the Swedish backstop.

Markstrom made 34 saves in a 4-3 shootout loss to Buffalo on Saturday afternoon.
EDGE Analysis
He was cruising toward a win late in the third when he allowed two goals in just 40 seconds. Markstrom's 7-3-2 record looks solid, but his 3.24 GAA and .898 save percentage make him a difficult activation in most formats.

Markstrom will protect the road net from the Sabres in Saturday's matinee.
EDGE Analysis
It defies logic, but Markstrom is 7-3-1 with a 3.28 GAA and an .896 save percentage between 11 starts. At this rate, his winning percentage is bound to taper off, even though the Canucks are ranked 10th in scoring at 3.29 goals per contest. Markstrom will now face a Buffalo team that averages 3.06 goals per game -- 20th in the league.

Markstrom made 23 saves Thursday in an 8-5 victory over Boston.
EDGE Analysis
The game featured significantly more offence than defence. Markstrom managed to make enough saves to come out on the winning side, but it certainly wasn't a top-100 effort. But that doesn't matter when it's your fourth-straight win. Markstrom is delivering more positive fantasy value than many of his higher-priced counterparts. Ride the wave.

Markstrom work between the pipes Thursday against the Bruins in Boston, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.
EDGE Analysis
Markstrom's road stats aren't overly appealing in the early going, as he's posted just a 3.38 GAA and .895 save percentage away from Rogers Arena. He's fared much better recently, posting a 1.85 GAA and .938 save percentage in his last two road starts. It may be difficult to replicate that success against a Bruins team sporting a plus-13 goal differential over six home contests this season.

Markstrom denied 28 of 30 shots from the Red Wings on Tuesday, but Dylan Larkin put the puck past him in the shootout for a 3-2 road loss.
EDGE Analysis
Markstrom surrendered the final two goals in regulation and then Larkin scored the game's lone goal in the skills competition to send Vancouver's top netminder home with his first non-regulation loss of the season. Markstrom, who had won each of his past three starts before hitting the skids in Motown, still performed quite well in this latest contest and remains in play as a No. 1 netminder in season-long leagues with the Canucks and Flames knotted up at 19 points apiece as co-leaders of the Pacific Divison.

Markstrom will start on the road versus the Red Wings on Tuesday, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.
EDGE Analysis
Markstrom is riding a three-game winning streak, despite having given up six goals in his previous outing. The netminder will see the bulk of the starts with Anders Nilsson (finger) sidelined and could cement himself as the true No. 1 if he continues to perform well.

The Canucks will use the same lineup they iced against Chicago on Wednesday against the Avalanche on Friday, which implies Markstrom will get the start in goal.
EDGE Analysis
Markstrom has been sharp recently, picking up back-to-back victories over the Wild and Chicago while posting an impressive 2.00 GAA and .938 save percentage over that span. The Swedish netminder will look to keep rolling and secure his sixth win of the campaign in a tough home matchup with a Colorado club that's averaging 3.63 goals per game on the road this season, fifth in the NHL.

Markstrom will start Wednesday's game against the Blackhawks, Jeff Paterson of TSN 1040 Vancouver reports.
EDGE Analysis
Markstrom won his last start, a 37-save performance this past Monday. On the season, the Swedish netminder is 4-3-0 in seven starts and will look to shut down a Blackhawks team that's scored 41 goals to this point in the season, good for fourth in the league.

Markstrom will start Monday's game against Minnesota.
EDGE Analysis
The Swedish-born netminder has had an inconsistent start to 2018-19 and will be in tough against a Wild team who come into Monday's contest having won five straight. Meanwhile, Markstrom is 2-1 in his last three starts with his most recent outing being a loss to Pittsburgh that saw him concede five goals on 35 shots.
