More recently, Demko has won three of his last four starts (3-1-0), allowing only nine goals and posting a .926 SV%.

The Canucks are slight -109 home favourites against a New Jersey Devils team that has scored 19 goals in their last four games (3-1-0).

Demko has started five of the last six games for the Canucks and will start again on Thursday as he looks for his third straight win. Demo was stellar on Tuesday, saving 30 of 31 shots (.968 SV%) in a 3-1 victory over the Anaheim Ducks and has saved 53 of 55 (.964 SV%) over his last two games (2-0-0). The Canucks have won three of their last five (3-2-0) and are -124 home favourites against a Vegas Golden Knights team that has been held to one or fewer goals in two of their last three games (0-1-2).

Demko will return to the crease on Tuesday when the Canucks welcome the Anaheim Ducks to Vancouver. Demko has been slightly inconsistent over the past several weeks (4-3-0), following up each victory with a sub.-900 SV% loss. Demko, a California native, will look to record consecutive victories for the first time in three weeks as the Canucks are sizeable -265 home favourites against a Ducks team that has lost six straight (0-6-0) and been held to fewer than three goals in all but one of those contests.

Demko is the starter for the Canucks on Friday on the front end of a back-to-back. The Canucks have lost three of four (1-3-0), being outscored 15-10, after a stretch that saw them collect a point in 11 of 12 games (10-1-1). Demko has struggled lately, allowing 17 goals in his last five games (2-3-0), posting a .872 SV%, including a loss to the Seattle Kraken last week when he allowed four goals on 26 shots (.846 SV%). That said, the Canucks are slight -107 road favourites against the Kraken, who have collected a point in five straight games (3-0-2).

Demko will unsurprisingly get the nod in Colorado for the Canucks on Wednesday. The 27-year-old netminder has been an integral part of the Canucks' early season success. He most recently turned away 27 of the 28 shots he faced in Monday's 3-1 victory over the Kraken. Demko owns an impressive 9-4-0 record on the season to go along with a .929 SV% and 2.12 GAA. He draws a tough assignment on Wednesday with the Canucks being +135 road underdogs to the Avalanche.

Demko is the starter for the Canucks on Monday against the San Jose Sharks. After an astonishing start to the season, posting a .948 SV% along with two shutouts in his first nine games (7-2-0), Demko has fallen back to Earth hard, allowing 12 goals on 81 shots (.852 SV%) in his past three contests (1-2-0). Demko will be looking to rebound back to early-season form as the Canucks are substantial -351 home favourites against the Sharks and their league-worst offence (1.53 GF / GP).

Demko backed up Casey Desmith in the Canucks previous game but will take over the starting job for the eighth time in the last 10 contests as he is set to start Saturday vs. Seattle. The 27-year-old is off to an incredible bounce-back year so far in 2023-24, with his 8-3-0 record, .932 SV%, 2.04 GAA, and two shutouts. He will face Seattle, who snapped a three-game losing streak with a victory last game but are struggling to score as they are 29th in the NHL in goals per game (2.56).

Demko will be the starter for the Cancuks on Wednesday and will look to build on a tremendous start to the season. Among all goalies who have played at least 10 games, Demko ranks first in goals against average (1.96) and save percentage (.935). He will look to pad those already impressive stats against a New York Islanders team that has lost five straight games (0-4-1), failed to score more than two goals in four straight, and ranks 31st in the league offensively (2.36 GF / GP).

Demko will look to build on the best start of his career on Monday as he will be the Canucks' starting goalie against the Edmonton Oilers. Demko is coming off a 27-save, 2-0 shutout victory over the Dallas Stars, his second shutout of the season, a career-high already. Through eight games (6-2-0), Demko has a gaudy 1.55 GAA and .947 SV%, trailing only Jeremy Swayman of the Boston Bruins in both categories among goalies that have started at least four games. The Canucks are slight -101 home underdogs against an Oilers team that is 2-7-1 but has enough offensive threats on their roster to make any opposing goalie uncomfortable.
