Inks five-year deal Demko secured a five-year, $25 million contract extension with Vancouver on Wednesday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Impact Demko appeared in 10 of the club's last 11 contests in which he posted a 7-3-0 record and 2.36 GAA, though he did give up four goals in each of his previous two outings. While it was expected Demko would be the netminder of the future for Vancouver, his long-term extension all but cements him as the team's No. 1 moving forward.

The 25-year-old goaltender will try to get back in the win column in a home matchup with a Flames team that's only averaging 2.10 goals per game on the road this campaign, 29th in the NHL.

Copp scores 4, Jets defeat Canucks 5-1
Andrew Copp scored four goals to lead the Winnipeg Jets to a 5-1 victory over the Vancouver Canucks on Wednesday nightMARCH 25, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Uninspiring against Jets Demko yielded four goals on 35 shots in Wednesday's 5-1 loss to the Jets.
Impact Demko was overpowered by Andrew Copp, who scored three of his four goals against the goalie -- he also had an empty-netter when head coach Travis Green pulled his goalie. The 25-year-old Demko has lost his last two games after winning seven of the previous eight. He has a 12-12-1 record with a 2.77 GAA and a .917 save percentage through 25 appearances. The Canucks have a week off before playing the Flames on March 31, which should give Demko plenty of time to practice and shake off his recent struggles.

Facing Winnipeg Demko will defend the blue paint during Wednesday's matchup with Winnipeg.

Not great in shutout loss Demko allowed four goals on 29 shots in Monday's 4-0 loss to the Jets.
Impact Demko wasn't at his best, and the Canucks didn't give him any help. They only trailed 1-0 after two periods, but Demko faded in the third. He fell to 12-11-1 with a 2.72 GAA and a .919 save percentage in 24 contests. The Canucks play the Jets again Wednesday, but it's unclear if the 25-year-old goalie will get a chance to redeem himself.
