Jacob Markstrom to Start Against Kraken, First Consecutive Starts Since December

Jacob Markstrom is slated to start Wednesday's home matchup against the Seattle Kraken, marking his first consecutive starts since early December. This decision follows a strong 5-2 win over the Wild on Monday and Jake Allen's three-game losing streak. Despite recent struggles, including allowing nine goals on Jan. 6, Markstrom has secured three wins in his last six appearances. The 35-year-old New Jersey Devils netminder holds an 11-10-1 record with a 3.41 GAA and .879 save percentage across 23 games this season. Facing the red-hot Kraken (7-1-2 in last 10), his fantasy outlook is risky.
