Jacob Markstrom Produces Another Shutout With 45 Saves
3 years agoCalgary Flames goaltender Jacob Markstrom registered his second shutout in three starts on Thursday, stopping 45 shots in a 4-0 victory over Pittsburgh. He helped the Flames become the third team in NHL history to sweep a road trip of at least five games while never trailing. Markstrom played a huge part in it, allowing only one goal in three appearances during the trip. He's saved 106 of the last 107 shots he's faced. The Swedish netminder has improved to 3-1-1 for the year and carries a 1.59 goals-against average with a .952 save percentage. He's been one of the best fantasy goalies early in the season and should see more action this week, with Philadelphia traveling to Calgary on Saturday.
