Markstrom will start vs. Minnesota on Monday.

Markstrom is coming off an awful team effort, where he was left between the pipes for all nine goals in an embarrassing 9-0 loss to the New York Islanders. The 35-year-old Markstrom is pacing for the worst season of his career, with an ugly 3.48 GAA and .878 SV% through 22 appearances (10-10-1). That said, Markstrom was actually stringing together a solid stretch before allowing nine goals on 24 shots (.625 SV%), posting a 1.85 GAA and .941 SV% in his previous four games (2-2-0).

Markstrom will start on Long Island on Tuesday.

After an 8-1-0 start to the season, the Devils have been the worst team in the Eastern Conference, plummeting in the standings, going 14-17-2. That said, the team got a stellar performance from Markstrom in his most recent outing, saving 30 of 31 shots (.968 SV%) in a 4-1 win over the Utah Mammoth. The 35-year-old veteran goalie has had a lackadaisical season, posting a 3.20 GAA and .888 SV% in 21 games (10-9-1), but he has shown some promise lately, posting a solid 1.85 GAA and .941 SV% in his last four games (2-2-0). The Devils enter Tuesday's contest as -111 road favorites against a New York Islanders team that has scored two or fewer goals in nine of their last 10 games (5-4-1).

Markstrom will start Thursday vs. the Lightning.

Markstrom has been unreliable and inconsistent between the pipes this season, but the Devils are hoping he can build momentum off a solid 35-save performance (.921 SV%) in their most recent game, a 4-3 win over the Ottawa Senators.

Markstrom will start in Ottawa on Tuesday.

After starting the season with a league-best 8-1-0 record, the Devils have gone 8-11-1 since, tied heavily to the absence of superstar forward Jack Hughes (hand).

The 35-year-old veteran goalie has an ugly 3.51 GAA and .876 SV% in 14 games this season (7-6-1). The Devils enter Tuesday's contest as +124 road underdogs against an Ottawa Senators team that has lost four of its last five (1-4-0).
