Jacob Markstrom has been MVP-worthy for Vancouver — what if he's in a different jersey next season? With the goalie market set to be among the most interesting aspects of the off-season, RoryBoylen breaks down the potential names that could be available:

These goalies have been No. 1s for their teams and likely will continue to be wherever their next contract puts them. Unless they are re-signed, they’re also scheduled to become UFAs after the season.He was rock solid for the Canucks all year and you might say he’s been even better through most of these playoffs with a .925 save percentage. No goalie has made more saves in these playoffs than Markstrom.

Holtby’s expiring contract came with a $6.1-million cap hit and the Caps have $10.3 million in space. At this point it’s not even obvious that Holtby should be more than a tandem goalie, though we must acknowledge, given his pedigree, the possibility he bounces back for a huge return.These are goalies who have been working in a tandem or would fit that mold going to next season.

“I want to play a ton,” he said at his end-of-season media call. “I don’t want to play half the games and sit on the bench for stretches at a time. I think my value is just not as good doing that. I’m way more valuable playing games and playing consistently. It really depends on how much I’m going to be used. Salary, that can be discussed, that is definitely something that is not as important at this time.
