On November 11, 2025, Canucks goaltender Jacob Markstrom is set to patrol the home crease against the Islanders. Markstrom has recently regained his form, winning back-to-back games after a rough return from a lower-body injury on October 28th, when he allowed 8 goals against the Avalanche.
Through 6 appearances this season, Markstrom now holds a 4-2-0 record, with a 3.95 goals-against average and .871 save percentage. The Islanders, who are coming off a 5-0 shutout win over the Rangers on Saturday, have been one of the league's highest-scoring teams so far in 2025-26, ranking 9th with 3.33 goals per game.
Markstrom will look to continue his recent strong play and help the Canucks contain the Islanders' potent offense when the two teams meet on Monday. The Swedish netminder's ability to bounce back from his shaky return will be crucial as the Canucks aim to secure another victory.
