Thatcher Demko News

Demko will be looking to get the Canucks in the win column for the first time in 2022-23 as they head to Washington to take on the Capitals Monday night. The six-year veteran has struggled mightily in the early season, losing both starts while allowing seven goals on his first 55 shots. The Canucks will need a lot more from their 2021 All-Star netminder if they hope to win their first game of the young season.

Demko will take the crease for Vancouver as the Canucks head to Philadelphia for a Saturday matinee. The Canucks starter will be looking to change his early season luck after struggling in their opener against Edmonton, allowing four goals on 24 shots. He draws a much less lethal matchup Saturday as he looks to get a Win on the board for the first time this year.

Demko will lead the Canucks for his fifth career NHL season. He is coming off a career year in 2021-22 where he finished with a career-best 33 wins, .915 SV% and 2.72 GAA.
