Canucks' Jacob Markstrom: Inks extension with Vancouver

Markstrom agreed to terms on a three-year contract extension with the Canucks on Thursday.

Analysis:

Markstrom split time with veteran Ryan Miller last season but should be given the opportunity to solidify himself as the starter in Vancouver. The netminder set a career high for games played during the 2015-16 campaign at 33 en route to a 13-14-4 record. If he wants to become a dependable No. 1 option, the 26-year-old will need to lower his 2.73 GAA.
