Demko will make his eighth start of the season when the Canucks travel to Carolina to take on the Hurricanes on Friday. It's Demko's first appearance since exiting early due to back spasms in Vancouver's 4-3 shootout victory over the Kraken on January 2nd. The Canucks franchise netminder has struggled between injuries this season, registering a 2-1-3 record and an .881 SV% on the year. He'll need to be at his best on Friday as he faces a Hurricanes team that's fresh off a decisive 6-3 victory over the Maple Leafs on Thursday.

Demko exited Thursday's game against Seattle and has been sidelined since. Head coach Rick Tocchet said that Demko had "some back spasms, so I dont think it's serious." Tocchet added that it "could be a day or two" but back spasms are unpredictable. Kevin Lankinen will likely see the majority of action between the pipes while Demko is unavailable.
