Thatcher Demko - NHL News & Rumors

Grounded in Philly Demko turned aside 34 of 38 shots in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Flyers, with Philadelphia's final goal getting scored into an empty net.

Impact After a scoreless first period, the Canucks' defense began to fall apart in the second, giving Demko little support as the home side built a 3-0 lead before Vancouver got on the board. It was the first time Demko had allowed more than three goals in a start since Nov. 3, and in five outings since returning from a lower-body injury, he's gone 3-2-0 with a dazzling 1.82 GAA and .929 save percentage.

First goalie off Monday Demko was the first goalie off during Monday's morning skate, Thomas Drance of The Athletic reports, signaling that he'll draw the road start against Philadelphia.

Impact Demko rested in the second half of a back-to-back set Saturday, but he'll return to the crease Monday for his fifth start in the Canucks' last six games. The 30-year-old has been stellar over his last three outings, going 3-0-0 with a 0.67 GAA and .972 save percentage.

Records third straight win Demko stopped 22 of 23 shots in Friday's 4-1 win over the Islanders.

Impact Demko was excellent between the pipes and extended his sizzling run of play. Aside from notching three wins in a row, Demko has also allowed just two goals on 72 shots over that span -- good for an impressive .972 save percentage. He should come down to earth at some point, but Demko will aim to keep his run going for as long as he can. The Canucks are playing on a back-to-back Saturday at Boston, but Demko isn't expected to start that game, meaning he should get the nod against the Flyers on Monday.

Set to start Friday Demko is slated to start Friday's road game against the Islanders, Thomas Drance of The Athletic reports.

Impact Demko is coming off a shutout win over the Rangers on Tuesday, and he'll draw a fourth consecutive start Friday. Over his three starts since returning from a lower-body injury, Demko has gone 2-1-0 with a 1.35 GAA and .938 save percentage.

Shuts out Rangers at MSG Demko turned aside all 23 shots he faced in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Rangers.

Impact The 30-year-old netminder recorded his first shutout of the season in style, surviving four power-play opportunities for New York. Demko has won two of three starts since returning from a lower-body injury, and on the season he's 7-5-0 in 13 outings with a 2.45 GAA and .910 save percentage. The fact that Demko has started three straight games since his return is a strong sign the Canucks don't intend to go easy on him in an effort to keep him healthy.

First off at morning skate Demko is set to protect the road crease Tuesday versus the Rangers, Thomas Drance of The Athletic reports.

Impact Demko turned in arguably his best performance of the season Sunday in New Jersey, turning aside 25 of 26 shots in a 2-1 win. Vancouver will have the rest advantage Tuesday, as New York is coming off a 4-1 loss to Anaheim on Monday. Demko has been excellent against the Rangers during his career, registering a 3-1-0 record, .935 save percentage and 2.01 GAA over four appearances. He made 23 of 24 saves against them earlier this season in Vancouver, but the Canucks were blanked 2-0 in that matchup.

First win since return Demko stopped 25 of 26 shots on goal and tallied an assist in Sunday's 2-1 win over New Jersey.

Impact Demko allowed just one goal in the second period en route to one of his strongest performances of the season. With the win, he now has a 6-5-0 record with a 2.67 GAA and a .903 save percentage through 12 appearances this season. His win Sunday was his first since returning to Vancouver's lineup from a lower-body injury. The 30-year-old netminder has dealt with multiple lower-body injuries over the last two seasons, as he's appeared in just 35 games since the start of last year's campaign. When he is healthy, however, Demko looks poised for a bounce-back season after posting a sub-.900 save percentage for the first time in his career a season ago. His next chance to guard the crease is Tuesday against the Rangers.

Defending crease Sunday Demko will guard the road goal against New Jersey on Sunday, per Mike Morreale of NHL.com.

Impact Demko is coming off a 12-save effort in Thursday's 3-2 loss to Buffalo. He has a 5-5-0 record with a 2.83 GAA and an .898 save percentage through 11 appearances this season. New Jersey is tied for 19th in the league with 2.94 goals per game this year.

Takes loss in return Demko stopped 12 of 15 shots in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Sabres.

Impact Demko missed 12 games due to a lower-body injury, and he wasn't very good against a light workload Thursday. The 30-year-old's injury history is lengthy and well-documented, and his chances of wins aren't looking good on a team that is languishing at the bottom of the standings. He's posted a 5-5-0 record with a 2.83 GAA and an .898 save percentage over 11 starts. Expect the Canucks to try to ease Demko in by having him split the workload with Kevin Lankinen for a while. A starting goalie for Sunday's game versus the Devils hasn't been announced yet.
