Without knowing your league's set-up, I would still protect Holtby.
The kid is running away with the starting job in Washington and Markov's health is so questionable. If you really like the risk, I'm sure Markov will be available to draft in the early rounds. Not many people will invest an early pick on him, IMO.
But then again, depends on your needs, your roster, league's set-up, etc...
Regardless of any positional requirements, stats, etc.. Pick Holtby every time

Always depending on your roster and requirements, but Id likely take Holtby. Didn't you hear....he's a lock for 2014!!
Holtby, really liking his confidence in net against Boston. Might be in a time share with Neuvy but I think he will be the long term guy!

thanks for the input
can protect 10 players total and 2 prospects
I can only protect 4 defensive players (combination of Def. & Goalie)
following are locks M. Smith, P.k. subban, Ryan Suter
with Holtby playing so well in round 1 I have to rethink my strategy
finished dead last and realistically should have a strong team in 2 years faster if Crosby stays healthy
leaning towards Holtby like his confidence
Holtby and not even close.
Hmmm protect an older defenseman who has played only a had full of games the past two seasons due to repeated knee injuries or a hot young goalie who is carrying his team when it counts most.
Worst case scenario...trade high on Holtby and get a more proven player
Easy choice...Markov a keeper...definite pass

"Markov" and "keeper" don't even belong in the same sentence.
