Markstrom has not played since Dec.1, where he picked up his second straight loss after stopping 19 of 21 shots (.895 SV%) against Montreal. The 32-year-old has slowly been losing his grasp on the Flames' starting position due to his .889 SV%, 2.97 GAA and 8-6-2 record. He faces the Columbus Blue Jackets, who have lost six of their last seven contests after a 9-4 loss to Buffalo on Wednesday.
