Markstrom had a rough start to the 2019-20 season, allowing three goals on 22 shots in the Canucks loss in Edmonton. His splits are always going to be mediocre but the Canucks offence should give him enough chances to win games. He was 3-2-0 with a 2.94 GAA and .917 SV% in five games vs. the Flames last season.
The 2018-19 season was a career-year for Markstrom, who set new career-highs in starts (60) and wins (28) while posting a 2.77 GAA and .912 SV%. Coming into 2019-20, the Canucks will lean heavily on Markstrom, who should start 60 games and could win 30 games for the first time. He was 2-0-1 with a 1.95 GAA and .929 SV% in three games vs. the Oilers last season.

Brown has not missed a game in the last three seasons but his offensive production has dropped as he moved down the Maple Leafs depth chart. Brown was a prolific scorer in the OHL and moving to a team with a lot of young wingers will allow Brown to play an expended role and likely return to 20 goals for the first time since 2017.
