it's what happens when you force an undersized teen that is 4th in goalie depth to play against one of the top teams
seemed like he got better as the game went on though

i dont blame benning for this situation, they planned markstrom to play but he tweaked something in practice and felt stiff. So it was like a last minute thing, and had no choice but to play DP. He had a month to find another goalie after Mckeena got claimed off waivers, but he couldn't have expected demko to be out with concussion as well. Plus the fans didnt want him to trade picks away, especially for a temporary backup. It shows how MVP Markstrom is to this team, without him, it's a blowout every game. Instead, we win games or lose by 1 goal

Quite the opposite. To steal a game any idiot can do it occasionally. To steal a series you need a possessed Giguere or Thomas, doesn’t happen much.

Besides, counting on a goalie to make ~47 saves every single game for the next 3 months while you rely on one line to score sounds exactly like the tire fire in northern Alberta doesn’t it...

Markstrom reported to have back spasms,
mazanec is good to go for tmr's game against the ducks.

I wonder if Markstrom is still healthy enough to be back up or he's out and it's Mazanec + DP tmr?
Markstrom - Nilsson to Mazanec - DP lol
oh boy.
