• Canucks' Arturs Silovs: Rough outing Wednesday

  1D ago • By RotoWire

  Silovs conceded five goals on 23 shots in Wednesday's 5-4 loss to the Penguins. Silovs was blitzed for four goals in the opening frame Wednesday, and the Canucks ultimately couldn't pull off the comeback. The Latvian netminder has allowed nine goals combined in back-to-back losses, and he could be sent to AHL Abbotsford in the near future as Thatcher Demko (knee) is closing in on a return to game action. Silovs has a 1-4-1 record, .847 save percentage and 4.11 GAA across seven appearances.

• Canucks' Arturs Silovs: In goal Wednesday

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Silovs will start on the road versus the Penguins on Wednesday, Iain MacIntyre of Sportsnet reports. Silovs will start the second half of a back-to-back after Kevin Lankinen made a 32-save performance in a shutout win Tuesday in Boston. The 23-year-old Silovs has allowed at least three goals in four of his five starts this season, so he'll be a risky fantasy play even with a fairly good matchup. The Penguins have averaged 2.52 goals per game in 2024-25.

• Canucks' Arturs Silovs: Falters against Rangers

  9D ago • By RotoWire

  Silovs stopped 29 of 33 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers. The Canucks scored 34 seconds into the game, but they lost the lead less than two minutes later and never pulled ahead again. Silovs was unable to build momentum after an excellent performance in a win over the Blackhawks on Saturday. The 23-year-old netminder is down to a 1-3-1 record with a 3.91 GAA and an .857 save percentage over six appearances. The Canucks are set to start a six-game road trip Saturday in Ottawa. They have one back-to-back set during their travels with a visit to Boston next Tuesday followed by a stop in Pittsburgh next Wednesday, so Silovs' next start is likely to be in one of those two contests.

• Canucks' Arturs Silovs: Drawing start at home

  10D ago • By RotoWire

  Silovs will be between the pipes for Tuesday's home tilt versus the Rangers, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports. Silovs had his best outing of the season Saturday against Chicago -- he turned aside 28 of 29 shots en route to a 4-1 victory. The 23-year-old will have a tough matchup in the Rangers, a club that ranks sixth in the NHL with 3.56 goals per game through 16 contests. Through five appearances, Silovs owns a 1-2-1 record, .850 save percentage and 3.86 GAA.

• Canucks' Arturs Silovs: Gets first win of season

  12D ago • By RotoWire

  Silovs stopped 28 of 29 shots in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Blackhawks. It was a closer game than the final score suggests, with Silovs doing his part to keep it that way until the Canucks' offense stepped up. Silovs earned his first win in five appearances this season (1-2-1), and he's allowed 16 goals on 107 shots for an .850 save percentage. Kevin Lankinen has started to falter under a heavy workload, so getting Silovs playing better could help the Canucks stay afloat until Thatcher Demko (knee) can play. It'll likely be Lankinen in goal against one of his former teams, the Predators, in Sunday's home contest.
