Demko (undisclosed) won't return to Saturday's game versus the Maple Leafs. Demko lasted 10:00 into the contest, stopping all six shots he faced. Kevin Lankinen took over in goal when Demko exited. The one silver lining here is that Demko will have two weeks to recover before the Canucks' visit to Vegas on Feb. 22 because of the 4 Nations Face-Off. The severity of the 29-year-old goalie's injury is unclear at this time.

Demko will patrol the home crease against Toronto on Saturday, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports. Demko has won his last two outings, stopping 58 of 59 shots and earning his first shutout of 2024-25. He has a 6-6-3 record with a 2.90 GAA and an .889 save percentage through 16 appearances this season. Toronto is tied for 11th in the league with 3.11 goals per game this campaign.

Demko stopped 33 of 34 shots in Thursday's 2-1 overtime win over the Sharks. Demko came within 1:28 of a shutout, but he had to settle for the overtime win. It was still a strong outing -- he's won three of his last four starts while allowing just five goals in that span. The 29-year-old seems to have shaken off the rust of a long-term knee injury that prevented him from playing for two months to begin the season. The netminder is now 6-6-3 with a 2.90 GAA and an .889 save percentage over 16 starts. The Canucks' last game before the 4 Nations Face-Off break is Saturday at home versus the Maple Leafs.

Demko will start in Thursday's road game versus the Sharks, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports. Demko gets the nod in his home state of California. He's started to turn things around recently, going 2-1-0 with just four goals allowed over his last three appearances. The 29-year-old has a favorable matchup Thursday, as the Sharks have scored just nine goals over their last four games.

Demko posted a 25-save shutout in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Avalanche. Demko turned in arguably his best performance of the season, which was also the second time he's defeated Colorado in 2024-25. His previous shutout was March 9, 2024, versus the Jets. Demko is up to 5-6-3 with a 3.03 GAA and an .882 save percentage over 15 contests, but he's allowed just four goals over his last three outings. The California native may be in line to start again Thursday versus the Sharks, though Kevin Lankinen has also played fairly well of late.
