Markstrom will make his first NHL start of the season. He is a great goalie prospect and with the Panthers struggling they are going to give the young kid a shot. I would assume Markstrom is up for good unless he plays terribly. However it can't get much worse than it already is. I would avoid starting him vs. Pittsburgh though.
With both of the Panthers goalies struggling this season they have recalled Markstrom who is one of the NHL's best goalie prospects. Markstrom was 49-47-4 with a 2.65 GAA and .918 SV% in his 100 career AHL starts. He is also 2-5-1 in eight starts in the NHL. He could start tomorrow for the Panthers when they take on Philadelphia. Playing for Florida will limit his fantasy value but if he can stay up with the Panthers he could be a good pickup for people in Keeper leagues.
Markstrom is regarded as one of the NHL's best goalie prospects, had a shot to make the Panthers in camp but it looks like they're going to with Jose Theodore and Scott Clemmensen for another season.
Markstrom could be this years' Cory Schneider if he lives up to all the hype. If you're feeling gutsy, take a flier on him in your draft's last round.
Sounds like Markstrom is fully healthy. Look for him to get back to form in the minors and possibly get another look if Clemmensen or Theodore get hurt again.

Expect Markstrom to at least backup tomorrow's game against the Rangers. With Jose Theodore expected to miss at least two weeks, the team's prized prospect should get another start or two.
Markstrom is still one of the League's top prospects and should get some more NHL experience over the next couple of games. If you need a spot start, he should be an excellent option.
Markstrom's demotion is a sign that Jose Theodore is fully healthy. There is no reason to roster the Swedish netminder in one-year leagues while he remains in the minors.
Markstrom figures to backup Clemmensen tonight but likely won't see any playing time in this stint.
Markstrom getting sent down means Scott Clemmensen is healthy enough to play. Despite playing well in his first stint this season, the rookie allowed five goals on 34 shots this Saturday. Expect him to get more seasoning and start close to every game in the AHL.
Markstrom has never faced the Lightning before.
