Thatcher Demko Stats

Vancouver Canucks goaltender Thatcher Demko (lower body) is set to miss the next six weeks. He exited Thursday's matchup against Florida with a lower-body injury and it's now going to take around a month and a half before Demko is game-ready again. It's another blow for the 26-year-old during a miserable campaign. Demko has had very little joy so far, posting a 3-10-2 record with a 3.93 goals-against average and a .883 save percentage. Spencer Martin has done much better and he should now get plenty of opportunities to boost his numbers. Martin enters Saturday's matchup versus Arizona with a 6-2-1 record, and he has given up 3.21 goals per game with a .900 save percentage.

Vancouver Canucks goaltender Thatcher Demko will make his 12th start of the campaign Friday versus the Kings, hoping to record only his second victory of the season. It's been a miserable year so far for the 26-year-old, with Demko going 1-8-2, giving up over four goals per game (4.02) and registering a poor .874 save percentage. He has lost four starts in a row prior to Friday's action. But maybe this is exactly the matchup Demko needs to turn the corner. He has won both of his previous career starts against the Kings, and the Canucks have lost just once in the past eight head-to-head meetings, winning five in a row at home.

Vancouver Canucks goaltender Thatcher Demko will miss Tuesday's matchup against Seattle with an undisclosed injury and is considered day-to-day. This is a bitter blow for the Canucks, who still have a chance to make the postseason with three games to go in the regular season. Demko has taken a few bad beatings on the bounce lately, but it's been a pretty solid season for him overall. The Canucks No. 1 has put together a 33-22-7 record with a 2.72 goals-against average and a .915 save percentage. Spencer Martin, who is 1-0-2 for the year, gets the nod for Tuesday's game.

Vancouver Canucks goaltender Thatcher Demko will try to win his sixth consecutive start on Wednesday against Montreal. The Canucks really hit form at the start of last month and it's helped Demko to notch eight victories in his last nine starts. He's improved to 25-16-2 for the season and owns a 2.63 goals-against average with a .917 save percentage and one shutout. Vancouver is heavily favored on paper, but the Canadiens have also been on a hot streak with seven wins in eight games, so things might turn out to be a lot tougher than they look for Demko and his crew.
