Thatcher Demko - Tending twine in Dallas Demko will patrol the road crease Tuesday versus the Stars, Iain MacIntyre of Sportsnet relays.

Impact Demko is 3-2-0 with a 2.82 GAA and an .892 save percentage since returning from a lower-body injury March 24. Vancouver is all but eliminated from postseason contention, but if Demko can stay healthy for the team's remaining five games, he could set himself up for a bounce-back season in 2025-26. The 29-year-old was dealing with a knee injury last offseason, so a full summer of training would likely go a long way for Demko, who posted an outstanding 35-14-2 record in 2023-24. As for Tuesday's opponent, Dallas has dropped back-to-back games after winning seven straight.

Impact Pettersson has missed the last seven games, and he didn't accompany the Canucks on the team's two-game road trip, per Iain MacIntyre of Sportsnet on Tuesday. The 26-year-old Pettersson could conclude the 2024-25 regular season with 15 goals, 45 points, 109 shots on net and 77 hits across 64 appearances.

Jonathan Lekkerimäki - Shipped down to minors Lekkerimaki was reassigned to AHL Abbotsford on Tuesday.

Impact While not mathematically eliminated, the Canucks are essentially a lock to miss the playoffs, so this move was presumably made to allow Lekkerimaki to gear up for the AHL playoffs. If this was his final stint with the big club, Lekkerimaki will conclude his rookie season having produced three goals and six points over 24 NHL appearances. The 20-year-old is a strong candidate to earn a full-time role with Vancouver in 2025-26.

Raty has six goals, two assists, 26 shots on net, 67 hits and a minus-2 rating over 28 appearances at the NHL level this year.
