Jacob Markstrom Takes On High-Scoring Jets
4 years agoCalgary Flames goaltender Jacob Markstrom will make his seventh start of the season on Monday against the Winnipeg Jets, who are averaging the fourth-most goals in the league with 3.63 per game. It's far from an ideal matchup for the Swedish netminder, but he'll head into the contest full of confidence after posting his second shutout of the season at the weekend against Montreal. Markstrom has now managed an impressive two shutouts early in the year, and he's posted a 2.18 goals-against average and a .929 save percentage. His record for the season stands at 3-2-1 ahead of the matchup, which has seen the home team winning 14 of the last 20 meetings.
