Markstrom made 24 saves on 25 shots but took the loss 2-0 against the Devils on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Though Markstrom didn't get the win, he was impressive once again. In his last five games he's allowed two goals or fewer.

Markstrom will patrol the crease as the home starter against the Devils on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

The Swedish backstop has been on his game, fashioning a 1.82 GAA and .922 save percentage over his past three appearances. His next match takes place against a Devils team that is thriving offensively and currently sits in first place within the Metropolitan Division.

Markstrom made 27 saves on 29 shots in a 2-1 overtime loss to the Stars on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

You can't blame Markstrom for the loss here, and so far he has a 2.41 GAA. That would be a career best for Markstrom, and it seems unlikely that number will stay steady, especially on a Canucks team that has probably played over their head this year.

Markstrom will tend the twine for Monday's game against Dallas.

EDGE Analysis

After starting six of the team's first eight games, Markstrom was relegated to the bench for the past two contests behind Anders Nilsson. Markstrom is a big goalie who has begun to find success in recent seasons by becoming more quiet in his movements and letting the game come to him. Monday he'll have the chance to have another say in Vancouver's goaltender competition, when he takes on a Stars team that sits 20th in league scoring with 2.91 goals per game.

Markstrom stopped 20 of 21 shots in Sunday's win over the Red Wings.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom has now put up back-to-back wins, bringing him up to 3-2-1 on the season. His .908 save percentage certainly leaves lots to be desired, but things appear to be trending in the right direction. Markstrom hasn't been great this season, but a strong showing against Detroit should be good for his confidence moving forward. He makes for a decent fantasy option in the cage considering the back-to-back victories and the fact Anders Nilsson hasn't really impressed since arriving in Vancouver.

Markstrom will start in the blue paint Sunday, facing the Red Wings on the road, Jeff Paterson of TSN 1040 Vancouver reports.

EDGE Analysis

This is the only game scheduled for Sunday, so Markstrom's upcoming performance will primarily impact poolies playing in non-DFS settings. Through six games, Markstrom is 2-2-1 with a 2.73 GAA and .902 save percentage; he's been fading a bit after starting the year yielding just four goals on 77 shots through his first pair of games against Edmonton and Ottawa, respectively.

Markstrom stopped 20 of 22 shots Friday in a 4-2 win over the Sabres.

EDGE Analysis

The good news is it was a win, but Markstrom didn't exactly put up great numbers in the win. He was saved by the Sabres' weak defense allowing 41 shots and four goals from his team. He can't count on that often against a Vancouver team that ranks dead last in shots per game.

Markstrom will start between the pipes in Friday's road game against the Sabres.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom has struggled of late, posting an 0-2-0 record while registering a 3.57 GAA and .844 save percentage over his last three appearances. The Swedish netminder will look to get back on track Saturday in a road matchup with a Sabres team that's averaging 2.57 goals per game this season, 23rd in the NHL.

Markstrom made 16 saves on 18 shots in relief of Anders Nilsson in Thursday's loss to the Bruins.

EDGE Analysis

Nilsson barely lasted 11 minutes in the game, but Markstrom was really not that much better in relief. The Canucks certainly find themselves in some goalie trouble considering Markstrom had given up eight goals in his previous two outings entering play Thursday. The 27-year-old own a .901 save percentage in five appearances and is once again dealing with consistency issues. Markstrom has some potential this season, but with the Canucks unlikely to do any major damage, he might have a hard time piling up victories.

Markstrom gave up five goals on 27 shots in Saturday's loss to the Flames.

EDGE Analysis

Markstrom started the season with a bang, but he hasn't looked great recently in back-to-back losses. The 27-year-old has the opportunity to emerge as the go-to-guy in Vancouver this year, but he'll need to overcome the consistency issues that have hampered him in the past. The potential is there for Markstrom to be a valuable fantasy asset, but the team could turn to newcomer Anders Nilsson if he continues to struggle.
