Jacob Markstrom Returns To Action Versus Oilers
4 years agoCalgary Flames goaltender Jacob Markstrom will make his first appearance since Feb. 20 in Saturday's matchup against the Oilers. The Swedish netminder has been out with a lower-body injury and David Rittich made six consecutive starts in his absence. Markstrom has an 8-6-1 record for the season with a 2.87 goals-against average, a .909 save percentage, and two shutouts. He has gone 1-1-0 in two starts against Edmonton this season. Markstrom lasted only 28:17 in the previous Battle of Alberta and gave up five goals on 15 shots, so he's returning in a very tricky matchup.
