ImpactMarkstrom's losing skid hit six games with the rough outing against the Maple Leafs. The 31-year-old dropped to 12-14-2 with a 3.02 GAA and an .898 save percentage in 28 appearances.

They're back in action Saturday versus the Oilers, which gives head coach Darryl Sutter a few days to work some things out in practice.
