Vancouver Canucks goaltender Casey DeSmith is getting his fifth straight starting nod on Saturday against the visiting Calgary Flames. DeSmith has been thrown into the No. 1 spot with the Canucks due to a long-term injury to No. 1 netminder Thatcher Demko. The 32-year-old has risen to the challenge, allowing two goals or fewer in four of his last five starts, including a shutout on March 9 against the high-octane Vancouver Canucks. For the season, the veteran has put forth a 2.75 goals-against average and an .898 save percentage across 23 appearances (20 starts). The Canucks enter Saturday's action sitting in the top spot in the Western Conference with a 44-18-8 record.--Brenton Kemp
