Flames’ Jacob Markstrom: Starting Game 1

Markstrom will guard the home goal in Wednesday’s Game 1 versus the Oilers, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.

Markstrom will look to build off a fantastic first round, in which he posted a 1.53 GAA and a .943 save percentage in seven games. The Oilers present a different type of challenge than the Stars did — Markstrom and the Flames’ defense will have to address the Oilers’ superstars, which could see his ratios get a bit worse in the second round.
