Thatcher Demko Dresses As Backup Thursday
49 seconds agoVancouver Canucks goaltender Thatcher Demko (lower body) will return to the lineup on Thursday against the St. Louis Blues, dressing as the backup to Kevin Lankinen. Demko has been out of action since Feb. 8 due to a lower-body injury. Now that he is once again considered game-ready, Demko could return to the net on Saturday when the Canucks take on the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden. Demko owns a 6-6-3 record for the season with 2.87 goals allowed. At the start of February, he posted his first shutout of the season, and Demko's save percentage stands at .891. Demko's return has a negative impact on Lankinen's fantasy stock, but he has been solid during his absence and will likely continue to see significant playing time.
