Arturs Silovs - Page 5 - NHL News & Rumors

Plenty of support in win Silovs stopped 17 of 19 shots in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Impact Silovs had lost his last four NHL outings, dating back to Nov. 19. He gave up 15 goals in that span, and while he was far from sharp Saturday, the Canucks' offense did even better with six goals on 15 shots against Arvid Soderblom. Silovs improved to 2-6-1 with a 3.65 GAA and an .861 save percentage over 10 appearances. Silovs is still likely to see limited action behind Kevin Lankinen, who is probable to start Sunday at home versus Utah.

Starting Saturday Silovs will guard the home net Saturday against Chicago, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.

Impact It'll be Silovs' first start since he was recalled from AHL Abbotsford last Sunday. The 23-year-old netminder has struggled in his nine NHL appearances this year, going 1-6-1 with an .858 save percentage and 3.85 GAA. Silovs will face a Chicago team that's averaging 2.71 goals per game.

MARCH 13 • THEPROVINCE.COM

Back with big club Silovs was recalled from AHL Abbotsford on an emergency basis Sunday.

Impact Silovs was assigned to Abbotsford on Saturday, but he's back with Vancouver in short order. The Latvian netminder will presumably back up Kevin Lankinen in Sunday's home tilt versus the Stars.

MARCH 9 • ROTOWIRE

Back to minors Silovs was assigned to AHL Abbotsford on Saturday.

Impact Nikita Tolopilo was recalled from Abbotsford on an emergency basis in a corresponding move. Silovs has struggled through nine appearances with the big club this season -- he's 1-6-1 with an .858 save percentage and a 3.85 GAA. As a result, Tolopilo appears to have earned a role in the crease behind Kevin Lankinen, at least in the short term, while Thatcher Demko works his way back from a lower-body injury.

MARCH 8 • ROTOWIRE

Sent down briefly Friday Silovs was reassigned to AHL Abbotsford on Friday for the purposes of retaining AHL playoff eligibility.

Impact He is back on the NHL roster, per the NHL media site. Silovs has been serving as the Canucks' backup netminder while Thatcher Demko (lower body) is out. Silovs will likely continue that role Friday versus the Wild, as Kevin Lankinen is set to start.

MARCH 7 • ROTOWIRE

Falters versus Ducks Silovs allowed four goals on 24 shots in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Ducks. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.

Impact The Canucks spotted Silovs a 2-0 lead after the first period, but he had given it away as the Ducks led 3-2 at the second intermission. The 23-year-old netminder has allowed five goals on 56 shots over his last two outings, both losses and both in the second half of back-to-back sets. He's 1-6-1 with a 3.85 GAA and an .858 save percentage over nine NHL outings this season. That's simply not good enough for even a backup, but the Canucks have few other options available while Thatcher Demko (lower body) is on the shelf. The team doesn't have any back-to-backs over the next week, so it's unlikely Silovs sees much time in the near term.

Slated to start Thursday Silovs is expected to start on the road against Anaheim on Thursday, per Jeff Paterson of Canucks Army.

Impact Silovs has a 1-5-1 record, 3.82 GAA and .862 save percentage in eight appearances this season. He did hold his own in his last start Sunday, stopping 30 of 32 shots, but he still suffered a 2-1 loss to Utah due to a lack of goal support. Anaheim ranks 32nd in the NHL with 2.51 goals per game.

FEBRUARY 27 • ROTOWIRE

Strong showing in loss Silovs stopped 30 of 32 shots in Sunday's 2-1 loss to Utah.

Impact Silovs wasn't the problem for the Canucks -- this loss can be blamed on a lack of offense, as the team mustered just 15 shots on net. This was Silovs' first NHL action since Nov. 27 versus the Penguins. He's with the big club while Thatcher Demko (lower body) is on the shelf. Silovs is 1-5-1 with a 3.82 GAA and an .862 save percentage over eight appearances this season. Kevin Lankinen is likely to handle the starting job, but the Canucks have another back-to-back up next with games in Los Angeles on Wednesday and Anaheim on Thursday, which could afford Silovs another start.

FEBRUARY 24 • THEPROVINCE.COM

Set to start on road Silovs will draw the start in Sunday's road game against Utah, Thomas Drance of The Athletic reports.

Impact Silovs will start in the second half of a back-to-back set after Kevin Lankinen tended the twine in Saturday's loss to Vegas. Silovs hasn't made an appearance in the NHL since Nov. 27, and he's gone 1-4-1 with a 4.11 GAA and .847 save percentage over seven outings with the Canucks this season.

FEBRUARY 23 • ROTOWIRE

Brought up Tuesday Silovs was summoned from AHL Abbotsford on Tuesday, per Jeff Paterson of CanucksArmy.com.

Impact With Kevin Lankinen getting a few days of rest after participating in the 4 Nations Face-Off, Silovs was brought up to the big club. Silovs will presumably be sent back down once Lankinen is back up to speed with the Canucks. Silovs has a 1-4-1 record, .847 save percentage and 4.11 GAA through seven appearances in the NHL this season.

FEBRUARY 18 • ROTOWIRE

Heads to minors Silovs was reassigned to AHL Abbotsford on Wednesday.

Impact Silovs was up with the Canucks under emergency conditions because Kevin Lankinen was unavailable Tuesday due to an illness. Silovs' demotion might indicate that Lankinen is expected to be fine for Thursday's tilt against Edmonton, so the Canucks do have the option of bringing back Silovs if Lankinen ultimately isn't ready to return.

JANUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Emergency recall Tuesday Silovs was recalled under emergency conditions Tuesday.

Impact Silovs' recall suggests something is wrong with either Thatcher Demko or Kevin Lankinen that could affect their availability for Tuesday's game against the Sabres. Expect Silovs to serve as the backup for the game, but it's unlikely his current NHL stay will be a long one.

JANUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Sent back to minors Silovs was reassigned to AHL Abbotsford on Thursday.

Impact With Thatcher Demko serving as the backup against Washington on Wednesday, Silovs services were no longer needed in the NHL. The 23-year-old netminder will return to the minors where he is 2-3-0 with a .900 save percentage in five outings. If Demko or Kevin Lankinen picks up another injury at some point this year, Silovs figures to return to the NHL roster.

JANUARY 9 • ROTOWIRE

Ascends to top level Silovs was recalled from AHL Abbotsford on Friday, according to Jeff Paterson of CanucksArmy.com.

Impact Silovs was 1-4-1 with a 4.11 GAA and an .847 save percentage over seven appearances with the Canucks during the first two months of the season. Silovs has seen limited duty in the AHL, going 2-3-0 with a 2.44 GAA and a .900 save percentage with Abbotsford. Silovs will back up Kevin Lankinen versus Nashville on Friday as Thatcher Demko gets the night off to deal with back spasms that forced him to leave Thursday's tilt in Seattle in the second period.

JANUARY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Sent to minors Silovs was returned to AHL Abbotsford on Tuesday.

Impact Silovs being sent down more than likely indicates that Kevin Lankinen (illness) will be ready to return to game action. The 23-year-old Silovs has a 1-4-1 record with an .847 save percentage and a 4.11 GAA through seven appearances with the Canucks in 2024-25.

Vancouver Canucks recall Arturs Silovs from Abbotsford as flu bug hits team Thatcher Demko expected to start in goal tonght against the Boston Bruins at Rogers Arena

DECEMBER 14, 2024 • THEPROVINCE.COM

Summoned from AHL Silovs was recalled from AHL Abbotsford on Saturday on an emergency basis.

Impact The Canucks noted that Silovs' call-up falls under a goaltender exemption but didn't provide the reason for his presence on the roster. Thatcher Demko has played in one game after returning from a knee problem, and Kevin Lankinen posted a 27-save shutout win over Florida on Thursday.

DECEMBER 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Back in AHL Silovs was assigned to AHL Abbotsford on Sunday.

Impact Silovs was a healthy scratch in Friday's 5-2 win over Columbus because of Thatcher Demko's return to the lineup from a knee injury. The 23-year-old Silovs has a 1-4-1 record with a 4.11 GAA and an .847 save percentage in seven NHL appearances this season.

DECEMBER 8, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Rough outing Wednesday Silovs conceded five goals on 23 shots in Wednesday's 5-4 loss to the Penguins.

Impact Silovs was blitzed for four goals in the opening frame Wednesday, and the Canucks couldn't pull off the comeback. The Latvian netminder has allowed nine goals in back-to-back losses, and he could be sent to AHL Abbotsford in the near future as Thatcher Demko (knee) is closing in on a return. Silovs has a 1-4-1 record, .847 save percentage and 4.11 GAA across seven appearances.

NOVEMBER 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

In goal Wednesday Silovs will start on the road versus the Penguins on Wednesday, Iain MacIntyre of Sportsnet reports.

Impact Silovs will start the second half of a back-to-back after Kevin Lankinen made a 32-save performance in a shutout win Tuesday in Boston. The 23-year-old Silovs has allowed at least three goals in four of his five starts this season, so he'll be a risky fantasy play even with a fairly good matchup. The Penguins have averaged 2.52 goals per game in 2024-25.

NOVEMBER 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Falters against Rangers Silovs stopped 29 of 33 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers.

Impact The Canucks scored 34 seconds into the game, but the lost the lead less than two minutes later and never pulled ahead again. Silovs was unable to build momentum after an excellent performance in a win over the Blackhawks on Saturday. The 23-year-old netminder is down to a 1-3-1 record with a 3.91 GAA and an .857 save percentage over six appearances. The Canucks are set to start a six-game road trip Saturday in Ottawa. They have one back-to-back set during their travels with a visit to Boston next Tuesday followed by a stop in Pittsburgh next Wednesday, so Silovs' next start is likely to be in one of those two contests.
