DeSmith will start Saturday vs. the Panthers in Finland.

DeSmith stopped 25 of 27 shots in the Stars win in Boston last Thursday. With Jake Oettinger starting on Friday, DeSmith will get the second-half of the back-to-back on Saturday vs. the Panthers. He's had a great start to his Stars career, going 2-1-0 with a 1.69 GAA, .936 SV% and one shutout in three starts.

DeSmith will start on Thursday in Boston.

The Stars organization made it very clear that Jake Oettinger is their goalie of the future, signing an eight-year contract extension last week, but they continue to be very liberal with their early-season goalie rotation and will return to DeSmith between the pipes for the third time in eight games. The 33-year-old DeSmith has been stellar when called upon early in the season, posting a 1.53 GAA and .941 SV% in two contests (1-1-0). The Stars enter the action on Thursday as slight +103 road underdogs against a Boston Bruins club that has been outscored 24-21 this season (3-3-1).

DeSmith will start in Washington on Thursday.

The Stars have an afternoon contest against the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday and are opting to keep Jake Oettinger fresh for that matchup, resulting in DeSmith occupying the crease on Thursday against the Washington Capitals. DeSmith was excellent in his only start of the season, saving all 25 shots he faced in a 2-0 victory over the Seattle Kraken. The undefeated Dallas Stars (4-0-0), one of only three remaining teams without a loss, enters Thursday's matchup as a -153 road favorite against the Capitals.

DeSmith will start Game 3 in Nashville on Friday.

Thatcher Demko will remain out of the lineup for at least one more game and as a result, the Canucks will turn to DeSmith between the pipes again in game three. DeSmith struggled in game two, his series debut, allowing three goals on 15 shots (.800 SV%), in a 4-1 loss to the Nashville Predators, evening the series at 1-1. The Canucks enter action as +101 road underdogs on Friday.

DeSmith will start Game 2 vs. the Predators.

With the surprising news that Thatcher Demko (undisclosed) will not be available for game two, and possibly beyond, the Canucks will turn to DeSmith in the crease. DeSmith is familiar with the Canucks crease as he was their mainstay between the pipes for the latter part of the season as Demko missed most of the final month due to a knee injury. DeSmith had a 2.89 GAA and .895 SV% in 29 games this season (12-9-6). The Canucks enter game two against the Nashville Predators as -131 home favourites.

DeSmith will start on Tuesday in Vegas.

The Canucks gave DeSmith a rest for the first time since Thatcher Demko's injury but will return to DeSmith on Tuesday against the Vegas Golden Knights. DeSmith has performed well lately, allowing three or fewer goals in six straight (3-3-0), including saving 31 of 33 (.939 SV%) in his most recent contest, a 3-1 loss to the Dallas Stars. The Canucks enter action as +118 road underdogs.

DeSmith will start against the Stars on Thursday.

With Thatcher Demko still sidelined due to injury, the Canucks will continue to roll with DeSmith in the net. DeSmith has started six straight and saw his three-game winning streak snapped in his last outing when he allowed three goals on 19 shots (.842 SV%) in a 3-2 loss to the Los Angeles Kings. The Canucks enter action as slight +102 home underdogs against the Dallas Stars.

DeSmith will start against the Kings on Monday.

The Canucks will turn to DeSmith for a sixth-consecutive game when they host the Kings on Monday. DeSmith has performed admirably as Vancouver's interim starting netminder, posting a 3-1-1 record and a .905 SV% in five games since taking over for the injured Thatcher Demko. He allowed just two goals on 24 shots as the Canucks secured a 4-2 victory against the Flames on Saturday. He is a good bet to pick up a fourth-consecutive win on Monday with the Canucks being -135 favourites over the Kings.
