Casey DeSmith is expected to start Saturday in San Jose.

DeSmith will draw the start for the first time in five games due to Vancouver being on a back-to-back as he is expected to take on San Jose Saturday. The 32-year-old backup netminder was traded to Vancouver earlier in the season and has done well when called upon with his 4-1-1 record, 2.89 GAA and .917 SV%. He will face the league worst San Jose Sharks, who have lost three straight games and are last in the NHL in goals (1.5) and shots per game (24.7).

DeSmith will start in Calgary on Thursday.

On the back end of a back-to-back, DeSmith will start for the Canucks on Thursday when they visit the Calgary Flames. DeSmith has seen a fair share of action between the pipes as the Canucks' backup this season and has performed admirably when called upon, showcasing a 2.67 GAA and .916 SV% through six games (4-0-1). Having played last night, the Canucks enter action as +124 road underdogs but are facing a Flames team that is 3-6-1 in their last 10 and ranks fifth worst in the league offensively (2.60 GF / GP).

DeSmith will start Sunday in Montreal.

DeSmith will get the nod against the Habs on Sunday for the tail-end of Vancouver's back-to-back. True to form, DeSmith has been solid but not spectacular when called upon this reason, boasting a .911 SV% and a 2.82 GAA to go along with his 3-0-1 record across five appearances. He is coming off one of the best starts of his young season, when he allowed just two goals on 30 shots in Thursday's 5-2 victory over the Senators. DeSmith makes for a great spot start on Sunday with the Canucks being -160 road favourites in Montreal.

Casey DeSmith will start Thursday vs. Ottawa.

DeSmith has been serviceable when called upon for the Canucks and will start his fourth game of the season on Thursday against the Ottawa Senators. In his first season with the Canucks, DeSmith is sporting a 3.07 GAA and .905 SV% in four appearances (2-0-1). After seeing more regular action to start the season, DeSmith will be making his first appearance in the crease since October 28th, a game where he allowed four goals on 24 shots in a 4-3 overtime loss to the New York Rangers. The Canucks have won four straight and are -120 road favourites against a Senators team that has lost five of their last seven (2-5-0).

DeSmith allowed three goals on 36 shots in the Canucks' win in Florida last Saturday. DeSmith has played very well to start his Canucks' career, stopping 75 of the 81 shots (.926 SV%) he's faced in three games. Tonight he'll got head-to-head with Igor Shesterkin, and enters play as +143 home underdog.

DeSmith will start Saturday in Edmonton.

DeSmith stopped all five shots that he faced after replacing Thatcher Demko (illness) during the Canucks' blowout win over the Oilers on Wednesday. Tonight he will make his first start with the Canucks, as he goes head-to-head with the Oilers again. This is a brutal matchup, so leave DeSmith on the waiver wire on a busy 14-game slate.
