Earlier in his career it seemed like he'd let in one bad goal a game.
As our defence got worse, it seems like he got better, making multiple saves per game that he had no business making.
He's 30 but there aren't too many miles on him relatively speaking.
If he can play like he did in Vancouver the last couple years, you'll be happy.
If he plays with the inconsistency he played with in his entire career prior to that... well GL.
He's a fierce competitor so there won't be any question on his side when it comes to effort, but who knows how he gels with your goalie coach.
That’s good. I’ve been jelly of the nucks for having him for a while, always thought he was one of your best players. Always lights out against the Flames. I hear his close friendship with Lindholm played a big part in picking Calgary.
Re: age:
@DarrenWHaynes “Jacob Markstrom will be 35 in the final season of his six-year deal. That’s the same age as Mike Smith when he began his two seasons in Calgary. Three years ago, Pekka Rinne won the Vezina Trophy at 35. Henrik Lundqvist is 38.”
