Wins in overtime Demko stopped 30 of 33 shots in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Islanders.

Impact Demko gave up a pair of power-play goals in the first period and an even-strength tally in the second, but the Canucks were able to pull off the comeback win. This was just the third time in 11 outings that Demko's given up at least three goals, though it's happened in each of his last two starts. He's up to 8-3-0 with a 2.04 GAA and a .932 save percentage. He'll likely watch from the bench Thursday as the Canucks visit the Flames, with Casey DeSmith expected to get the start.

Expected to start Wednesday Demko is set to start in Wednesday's home game versus the Islanders, per Jeff Paterson of The Hockey News.

Impact Demko has a 7-3-0 record, 1.96 GAA and .935 save percentage in 10 contests this campaign. As dominant as he's been, Demko struggled in his last start Saturday, allowing five goals on 22 shots in a loss to Toronto. The Islanders are tied for 30th offensively with 2.36 goals per game, so this is a good opportunity for the goaltender to rebound.

First loss in almost month Demko made 17 saves in a 5-2 loss to Toronto on Saturday.

Impact The Leafs were outshot 12-4 in the first period, but they managed just one goal that frame. But they scored four unanswered goals starting in the second period. Demko wasn't awful by any means. Instead, the Leafs played with a different urgency than they had in weeks, and the Canucks couldn't answer the bell. The loss was Demko's first since Oct. 19.

The 27-year-old improved to 7-2-0 with a 1.61 GAA and a .948 save percentage through nine starts this season. He's started four games in a row, though he should get some rest when the Canucks play back-to-back days this weekend in Toronto and Montreal. They begin a three-game road trip in Ottawa on Thursday.

Impact Demko has won his past five outings, having stopped 122 of 127 shots. He has two shutouts and a .961 save percentage during that span. Demko made 21 saves in an 8-1 win over the Oilers on Oct. 11 to begin the 2023-24 campaign. Edmonton has registered just 27 goals through 10 games this season.

Expected to start Saturday Demko was the first goaltender off the ice at morning practice, indicating he will get the home start versus Dallas on Saturday, according to Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650.

Impact Demko is off to a great start this season, going 5-2-0 with a 1.79 GAA and .940 save percentage. He has won four games in a row, giving up only five goals on 100 shots. Demko will face the Stars, who are completing their Western Canada road trip. Dallas has scored 30 times this season in nine games.

Cruises to win Demko made 30 saves on 31 shots in Thursday's 10-1 win over the Sharks.

Impact Demko didn't have to be anywhere near his best Thursday, and yet he came within 3:48 of a shutout anyway. Fabian Zetterlund spoiled the bid with a power-play goal. Demko has won four straight outings, improving to 5-2-0 with a 1.79 GAA and a .940 save percentage through seven appearances. The 27-year-old may not be able to maintain those numbers all season, but he appears to be among the best goalies in the league once again after a rough 2022-23. The Canucks will face a stiffer test Saturday at home versus the Stars, which may be Demko's toughest opponent yet if he gets the start.

NOVEMBER 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Set to face Sharks Demko is expected to start on the road against San Jose on Thursday, according to Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News.

Impact Demko is on a three-game winning streak, stopping 65 of 69 shots (.942 save percentage) over that stretch. That's pushed his 2023-24 record to 4-2-0 with a 1.92 GAA and a .935 save percentage through six outings. Meanwhile, the Sharks are off to a dreadful 0-8-1 start, and their offense has bordered on non-existent -- just 1.00 goals per game.

Defeats Predators Demko gave up two goals on 29 shots in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Predators.

Impact Demko earned his third straight win with a solid performance. He's allowed four goals over that span, bouncing back from an uneven stretch earlier in the season. The 27-year-old is now 4-2-0, and he's allowed two goals or fewer in five of his six outings. The Canucks have a favorable matchup Thursday versus the Sharks, but it's unclear if they'll give Demko the start or keep him fresh by allowing Casey DeSmith to play in goal.

Cruises to shutout Demko posted a 22-save shutout in Friday's 5-0 win over the Blues.

Impact The Blues didn't show much to start the game, and Demko didn't give them anything to work with after they found some urgency. This was Demko's first shutout and third win in five games this season. The 27-year-old has allowed more than two goals in just one outing, giving up nine tallies on 140 shots overall for a .936 save percentage. Casey DeSmith will start versus the Rangers on Saturday, but Demko should get the start Tuesday against the Predators, a team he's already defeated once this season.

OCTOBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Set to face Blues Demko is expected to start in Friday's home game versus St. Louis, per Jeff Paterson of The Hockey News.

Impact Demko has a 2-2-0 record, 2.42 GAA and .924 save percentage in four contests this season. He's traditionally struggled against the Blues, posting a 3.14 GAA and a .903 save percentage in five career contests, but St. Louis hasn't challenged opposing goaltenders much this campaign, averaging just 2.17 goals per game.

OCTOBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Rarely tested in road victory Demko kicked aside 15 of 17 shots in Tuesday's 3-2 road win against the Predators.

Impact Demko picked up his first victory since the opener on Oct. 11 against the Oilers. He had made 72 saves on 78 shots across the past two starts, but the offensive support just wasn't there for him. Demko and the Canucks will look to stay in the win column Friday night against the visiting Blues.

OCTOBER 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

First off Tuesday Demko was the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate, according to Thomas Drance of The Athletic, indicating he will defend the road net Tuesday versus Nashville.

Impact Demko is coming off a 32-save effort in Thursday's 4-3 loss to Tampa Bay. He has lost his past two outings to drop his record to 1-2-0 on the year. Demko has a 2-2-1 record with a 2.80 GAA and a .910 save percentage in five career contests versus the Predators.

OCTOBER 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Another strong outing Demko made 31 saves in a 4-3 loss to the Lightning on Thursday.

Impact Demko played a strong game. He made a pair of strong saves on Steven Stamkos on a first period power play before Nick Paul shovelled in a rebound. And Demko had no chance on Nikita Kucherov's first goal -- he was screened by an army in front and didn't even catch a glimpse of the puck. Demko has put up several strong performances this year and appears to have shed the smell of last year's poor season.
