Vancouver Canucks goaltender Thatcher Demko is considered week-to-week with a lower-body injury, a team spokesperson said Tuesday.
The Vancouver Canucks' goaltender, Thatcher Demko, has been sidelined with a lower-body injury and is expected to be out on a week-to-week basis, as announced by the team on February 18, 2025. This injury occurred during a game against the Winnipeg Jets, where Demko had to leave after the first period. In his absence, Casey DeSmith stepped in, making 12 saves in a 4-2 victory. Demko, who has been pivotal for the Canucks this season with a record of 30-11-2, a .918 save percentage, and a 2.45 goals-against average, will be missed as the team aims to maintain their lead in the Pacific Division. The Canucks are currently preparing for their next game against the Seattle Kraken.
