After Tim Thomas left yesterday's contest with a groin injury, Markstrom came in and was excellent in relief. He turned aside all 25 shots he faced, but the Panthers could only get one passed Steve Mason. He will be the starter as long as Thomas is out, but the injury is not expected to be long term.

Allen is expected to start the season in the AHL despite having a strong camp.

Markstrom projects to be the Panthers' top goalie this season but he will still have to earn the job out of camp. Stash him late in your drafts with hopes he can put it all together this season.
