Canucks' Jacob Markstrom: Suffers loss in shootout Tuesday

Markstrom stopped 40 of 42 shots in Tuesday's shootout loss to the Senators.

Analysis:

Markstrom has been exceptional in his first two starts of the season, but he had no answer for Kyle Turris and Mark Stone in the shootout Tuesday. The 27-year-old owns a .948 save percentage through two contests and is showing why he could emerge as the clear-cut starter in Vancouver this season. While he's been sensational thus far, it's worth noting he's given up a soft goal in each contest. We wouldn't be too worried, however, as things appear to be trending upwards for Markstrom and he's a solid fantasy play right now.
