Markstrom "I'm not good enough, and we got a lot of guys on our team that's not good enough either to be in this league. It's embarrassing"
Markstrom allowed four goals on 33 shots, three of which were scored in the first period to put the Canucks in a hole out of which they could not climb.
The loss dropped Vancouver to 21-28-6, good for 48 points and 28th place in the league standings.
