Back in net Sunday Silovs will guard the road crease in Game 3 against Edmonton on Sunday.

Impact Silovs will make his fifth straight start for Vancouver -- he's 3-2-0 with an .899 save percentage in the postseason while allowing four goals in each of his first two games against the Oilers. Casey DeSmith is healthy, though he'll likely backup Silovs on Sunday.

Gives up four goals in loss Silovs allowed four goals on 31 shots in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Oilers in Game 2.

Impact Silovs has given up four goals in each of the first two games of the second round, on a total of 49 shots. The 23-year-old is getting a first-hand taste of the power of the Oilers' offense, and it's unclear how much longer head coach Rick Tocchet will stick with Silovs. Casey DeSmith is healthy enough to play, while Thatcher Demko (knee) could be back later in the series. Game 3 is Sunday in Edmonton.

In goal Friday Silovs will be between the home pipes against Edmonton in Game 2 on Friday, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.

Impact Silovs was far from perfect in Game 1, giving up four goals on 18 shots (.788 save percentage) but still managed to pick up the victory. In his four postseason appearances, the young netminder is 3-1 with a 2.28 GAA, .908 save percentage and one shutout. If Thatcher Demko (knee) is cleared to play at some point in this series, he will likely supplant Silovs as the No. 1 option in the crease.

Hangs on in comeback win Silovs stopped 14 of 18 shots in Wednesday's 5-4 victory over the Oilers in Game 1.

Impact It was a rough start to the game for Silovs, who allowed four goals on Edmonton's first 14 shots. However, the Oilers mustered only eight shots over the final two frames as the Canucks rallied with four unanswered goals to claim a 5-4 series-opening win. Silovs has won three of four starts in the postseason, posting a .908 save percentage. However, Casey DeSmith seems likely to start Game 2 on Friday after he was healthy enough to back up Silovs on Wednesday.

MAY 9, 2024 • YOUTUBE

Making fourth straight start Silovs was the first goalie off the ice at morning skate, per Kevin Woodley of NHL.com, putting him on track to guard the home crease versus Edmonton in Game 1 on Wednesday.

Impact Silovs was excellent after being thrust into action in the first round versus Nashville due to injuries to Thatcher Demko (knee) and Casey DeSmith, who is now healthy but was dealing with a lower-body injury. Silovs went 2-1-0 while posting an impressive 1.70 GAA and .938 save percentage through three appearances against the Predators. The Connor McDavid-led Oilers offense racked up 22 goals through five games in the first round versus Winnipeg, so Silovs will likely be tested early and often Wednesday.

Clinches series with shutout Silovs posted a 28-save shutout in Friday's 1-0 win over the Predators in Game 6.

Impact Silovs was dialed in from the start, earning his first NHL shutout -- regular season or playoffs -- to secure a 4-2 series win for the Canucks. The 23-year-old has allowed just five goals on 80 shots over three appearances since taking over for Casey DeSmith in goal beginning with Game 4. If Silovs continues to operate as the starter in the second round, he'll find a much more challenging task ahead versus the Oilers.

First goalie off Friday Silovs was the first goalie to leave the ice Friday, Thomas Drance of The Athletic reports, indicating he'll tend the twine for Game 6 at home against the Predators.

Impact Silovs will make his third straight appearance in goal for the Canucks, having gone 1-1 with a 2.57 GAA and .904 save percentage in his previous two outings. Despite just 11 games of NHL experience, coach Rick Tocchet will stick with the 23-year-old Silovs ahead of Casey DeSmith.

Can't close out series Silovs stopped 20 of 22 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Predators in Game 5.

Impact Silovs gave up goals to Roman Josi and Alexandre Carrier in the third period of a low-scoring loss. With five goals allowed on 52 shots, Silovs has been solid in his two playoff appearances. The 23-year-old may still end up ceding the crease back to Casey DeSmith, who served as backup Tuesday after missing Sunday's Game 4 with a lower-body injury. The Canucks will get their second chance to advance in Friday's Game 6 in Nashville.

Starting in Game 4 Silovs will defend the road net Sunday in Game 4 against Nashville, per Rick Dhaliwal of CHEK television.

Impact With Thatcher Demko (knee) and Casey DeSmith (undisclosed) unavailable due to injuries, Silovs will make his NHL playoff debut. The 23-year-old Silovs stopped 74 of 84 shots in four NHL appearances during the 2023-24 regular season en route to a 3-0-1 record.

Returned to AHL Silovs was sent back to the minors Tuesday.

Impact Silovs became expendable following the return of Thatcher Demko from a knee injury. The 23-year-old Silovs figures to link back up with AHL Abbotsford for their final two games of the regular season but figures to be at the top of the shortlist of call-ups should the need arise for Vancouver.

APRIL 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Struggles with light workload Silovs surrendered four goals on 18 shots in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Coyotes.

Impact Silovs took his first loss at the NHL level this season, as he couldn't stop the Coyotes' second line. He's faced no more than 23 shots in any of his four games, posting a 3-0-1 record despite allowing 10 goals on 84 shots. Thatcher Demko (knee) could be back Saturday versus the Oilers, and while it's possible Silovs stays in the NHL as a third goalie, his playing time would likely be next to nothing in the postseason.

APRIL 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Slated to start Wednesday Silovs is set to start at home against Arizona on Wednesday, per Kevin Woodley of NHL.com.

Impact Silovs has appeared in three games with Vancouver dating back to March 31 and has gone 3-0-0 with a 2.00 GAA and a .909 save percentage over that stretch. His success combined with Casey DeSmith's struggles has led to Silovs playing a bigger role. All the same, Silovs might be sent to the minors Thatcher Demko (knee) is ready to return. In the meantime, the Coyotes figure to be a somewhat favorable matchup -- Arizona is tied for 18th offensively with 3.04 goals per contest.

APRIL 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Settles in for third win Silovs allowed three goals on 23 shots in Monday's 4-3 win over the Golden Knights.

Impact Silovs gave up a pair of goals to Jack Eichel in the first period, but he limited the damage after that to just one Noah Hanifin power-play marker. This was Silovs' third win in as many games at the NHL level this season. He's allowed six goals on 66 shots, and the Canucks have played strong defense in front of him to make things a bit easier. The 23-year-old will likely head back to AHL Abbotsford once Thatcher Demko (knee) is healthy.

APRIL 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Exits ice first Silovs was the first goalie to leave the ice Monday, Thomas Drance of The Athletic reports, indicating he'll be between the pipes at home versus Vegas.

Impact Silovs has wins in his previous two NHL appearances this season, posting a combined 1.50 GAA and .930 save percentage. With another strong performance, it's possible that the young netminder gets additional minutes down the stretch -- at least until Thatcher Demko (knee) is cleared to return.

APRIL 8, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Steady in win Silovs stopped 20 of 21 shots in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Coyotes.

Impact The Canucks got blitzed in Vegas on Tuesday, but Silovs delivered a strong effort against a sneaky offense in the second half of a back-to-back. He's won both of his NHL appearances this season, allowing just three goals on 43 shots. Silovs' time in the NHL could still be nearing a close, as Thatcher Demko (knee) could be back as soon as Monday's game versus the Golden Knights.
