Honestly, right now I have zero confidence in either Markstrom or Vladar. Markstrom has played in 14 games and out of those 14 he's had one outstanding one (vs Pittsburgh on Oct 25 where he had a .970 Sv% on 33 SOG)... maybe two if you count the Carolina game on Oct 22 (.926 Sv% on 27 SOG). The rest of the games he's struggled and his current Sv% is .887. Vladar has played in 4 games and his Sv% isn't any better at .881. With either of those two in net the Flames have to play an error free game just to win these days. Gone are the days when we were in the top 5 in the league in Goals For. Frankly it just seems like almost every game the Flames have the 2nd best goalie on the ice.
On the other hand Dustin Wolf, after getting off to a slow start has .948 Sv% in his last 6 games.. and has a .922 Sv% overall in 11 GP. Time to see what we have in Wolf. How much worse can it be if he shits the bed? If he does... send him back down to the Wranglers for more seasoning.
I say its time for Treliving to make a decision at the end of this current road trip.
