[Mr. Canucklehead]

Doubt Eriksson sees any games, but I guess we're going to continue riding Lack.

this to do with Markstrom and re-entry waivers I guess?

 

[Nuckles]

So we're just going to ride Lack into the ground again? We're not going to give Markstrom another chance before the season ends? Are we still going to hand Markstrom the backup role for next season on a silver platter even if he doesn't play again this season? Cool beans.

 

[Proto]

You knew with Willie as coach that Markstrom would never see the ice again after being thrown out there against the Sharks.

We'll probably end up with neither of Lack/Markstrom by this summer. Ryan Miller, goalie of the future!

 

[arsmaster*]

Awesome, if anything I hope we either give the kid a start and get him a win, or he gets into a blowout and can improve his numbers that torts saddled him with for 6 goals (5 on the PP) in Anaheim.

 

[PM]

If Markstrom doesn't play another game this year does he set an all-time record for worst NHL goaltending stats in a season? He must have above a 20 GAA after getting yanked against the shots and I'm pretty sure his save% was 25%.

For those that don't know, GAA is per 60 minutes so if you get pulled 30 minutes in your GAA effectively doubles.

Hilarious

I'm more confident in the mental makeup of Eriksson anyways. It was dumb to put Marky in there against SJ, and it essentially knocked the jenga tower that he had been building all year down in under 10 minutes of NHL game time.

Markstrom strikes me as a guy who is still lamenting goals he gave up at the WJ in 2009/10. He comes across as a very fragile personality.

I personally hope to never see him in our jersey again. If he was a 7th round pick, he'd be back in Sweden already.

There are no re-entry waivers. This is all about getting Markstrom some playing time and hopefully to get his confidence back up.

lol, this is all too ridiculous to parse.

Makes Eriksson's 10.00gaa, and .802 look sterling.

 

[Addison Rae]

per botch

@botchford: Markstrom was sent down to Utica to play. Will be back after playing. Ericsson to replace him in Van

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

So we give Markstrom one of the more difficult teams (San Jose) and decide one awful start is enough? I know it's a tight race to make the playoffs, but we could certainly afford trying him out against Toronto, Philly or Columbus.

 

[donut]

I thought Willie was going to give Markstrom the TOR game TBA

 

[canuck4life16]

I think Joakim Eriksson is going to play against Flyers.......I believe they draft him and did not sign him to a contract

 

[WTG]

Good news for Utica they need him more than we do.

 

[arsmaster*]

What's ridiculous - he should not have started in SJ....pretty accurate after watching that debacle.

He's a mental midget - I mean sure, hard to quantify....ridiculous, not so sure. He's been known to be rattled dating back to his junior days.

 

[thepuckmonster]

Everyone is making a mountain out of a molehill. They want Markstrom to get some playing time, he'll be back up soon.

...

can another team claim Markstrom off waivers now?

Nope.

 

[Evgeny Oliker]

...

Nope.

why not? When Van sent him down before season began other NHL teams were able to claim him. how is this different?

He only has to pass though waivers once a season unless he plays more than 10 games. The emergency recall voids the 30 day limit, IIRC.

There is a 10 game, or 30 day window.

 

[BeardyCanuck03]

Emergency Recall Rules.

He cleared waivers back then. He can be recalled and sent back down again without being subject to waivers a second time as long as he doesn't play in 10 NHL games or be up for 30 days. In this case the 30 day rule doesn't apply because it was an emergency call up. Only the 10 games played matter. For goalies it is 10 games played in and not 10 games dressed for.
