Arturs Silovs - Page 3 - NHL News & Rumors

First goalie off Thursday Silovs was the first goalie to leave the ice Thursday, Thomas Drance of The Athletic reports, indicating he'll be in goal at home versus the Oilers in Game 5.

Impact Silovs will make his eighth straight start since supplanting Casey DeSmith as the preferred option between the pipes -- at least while Thatcher Demko (knee) is sidelined. In his prior seven postseason outings, the 23-year-old Silovs is 4-3 with a 2.71 GAA and one shutout.

Comes up short in Game 4 Silovs stopped 27 of 30 shots in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Oilers in Game 4.

Impact The Canucks battled their way back into the game in the third period, tying it at 2-2 on a Dakota Joshua goal. That lasted all of 1:02, as Evan Bouchard scored with 39 seconds left in regulation, sending Silovs to his third loss in seven playoff outings. He's now allowed three or more goals in five of his appearances. The Canucks return home with the series tied at two games apiece, though Silovs has played well enough that he'll likely get the start in Thursday's Game 5.

Making seventh straight start Silovs will patrol the road crease versus Edmonton in Game 5 on Tuesday, Thomas Drance of The Athletic reports.

Impact Silovs was excellent in Game 4 on Sunday, turning aside 42 of a whopping 45 shots en route to a 4-3 victory. The Oilers appear set to split stars Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl between two lines Tuesday, so while Edmonton's first line won't be quite as intimidating, Silovs will presumably face a more balanced attack from the team in Game 5.

Holds ground in Game 3 win Silovs stopped 42 of 45 shots in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Oilers in Game 3.

Impact Silovs was bailed out by the goalposts a few times, but he was also sharp with the Oilers throwing a ton of pucks his way. The netminder has won four of his six outings in the playoffs, though he's allowed 16 goals in those games. It's unlikely head coach Rick Tocchet will turn away from Silovs for Game 4 on Tuesday, and the net will likely be his until Thatcher Demko (knee) is ready to play.

Back in net Sunday Silovs will guard the road crease in Game 3 against Edmonton on Sunday.

Impact Silovs will make his fifth straight start for Vancouver -- he's 3-2-0 with an .899 save percentage in the postseason while allowing four goals in each of his first two games against the Oilers. Casey DeSmith is healthy, though he'll likely backup Silovs on Sunday.

Gives up four goals in loss Silovs allowed four goals on 31 shots in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Oilers in Game 2.

Impact Silovs has given up four goals in each of the first two games of the second round, on a total of 49 shots. The 23-year-old is getting a first-hand taste of the power of the Oilers' offense, and it's unclear how much longer head coach Rick Tocchet will stick with Silovs. Casey DeSmith is healthy enough to play, while Thatcher Demko (knee) could be back later in the series. Game 3 is Sunday in Edmonton.

MAY 11 • ROTOWIRE

In goal Friday Silovs will be between the home pipes against Edmonton in Game 2 on Friday, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.

Impact Silovs was far from perfect in Game 1, giving up four goals on 18 shots (.788 save percentage) but still managed to pick up the victory. In his four postseason appearances, the young netminder is 3-1 with a 2.28 GAA, .908 save percentage and one shutout. If Thatcher Demko (knee) is cleared to play at some point in this series, he will likely supplant Silovs as the No. 1 option in the crease.

Hangs on in comeback win Silovs stopped 14 of 18 shots in Wednesday's 5-4 victory over the Oilers in Game 1.

Impact It was a rough start to the game for Silovs, who allowed four goals on Edmonton's first 14 shots. However, the Oilers mustered only eight shots over the final two frames as the Canucks rallied with four unanswered goals to claim a 5-4 series-opening win. Silovs has won three of four starts in the postseason, posting a .908 save percentage. However, Casey DeSmith seems likely to start Game 2 on Friday after he was healthy enough to back up Silovs on Wednesday.

Canucks Goalie Arturs Silovs Is Answering The Call In The Playoffs

MAY 9 • YOUTUBE

Making fourth straight start Silovs was the first goalie off the ice at morning skate, per Kevin Woodley of NHL.com, putting him on track to guard the home crease versus Edmonton in Game 1 on Wednesday.

Impact Silovs was excellent after being thrust into action in the first round versus Nashville due to injuries to Thatcher Demko (knee) and Casey DeSmith, who is now healthy but was dealing with a lower-body injury. Silovs went 2-1-0 while posting an impressive 1.70 GAA and .938 save percentage through three appearances against the Predators. The Connor McDavid-led Oilers offense racked up 22 goals through five games in the first round versus Winnipeg, so Silovs will likely be tested early and often Wednesday.

Clinches series with shutout Silovs posted a 28-save shutout in Friday's 1-0 win over the Predators in Game 6.

Impact Silovs was dialed in from the start, earning his first NHL shutout -- regular season or playoffs -- to secure a 4-2 series win for the Canucks. The 23-year-old has allowed just five goals on 80 shots over three appearances since taking over for Casey DeSmith in goal beginning with Game 4. If Silovs continues to operate as the starter in the second round, he'll find a much more challenging task ahead versus the Oilers.

First goalie off Friday Silovs was the first goalie to leave the ice Friday, Thomas Drance of The Athletic reports, indicating he'll tend the twine for Game 6 at home against the Predators.

Impact Silovs will make his third straight appearance in goal for the Canucks, having gone 1-1 with a 2.57 GAA and .904 save percentage in his previous two outings. Despite just 11 games of NHL experience, coach Rick Tocchet will stick with the 23-year-old Silovs ahead of Casey DeSmith.

Can't close out series Silovs stopped 20 of 22 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Predators in Game 5.

Impact Silovs gave up goals to Roman Josi and Alexandre Carrier in the third period of a low-scoring loss. With five goals allowed on 52 shots, Silovs has been solid in his two playoff appearances. The 23-year-old may still end up ceding the crease back to Casey DeSmith, who served as backup Tuesday after missing Sunday's Game 4 with a lower-body injury. The Canucks will get their second chance to advance in Friday's Game 6 in Nashville.
