Just listening to Travis on the pre-game show talking about how impressed he is with Demko. Mentioned that the true ability of a pro player is shown in his ability to take his game to another level under challenging circumstances and that with Bachman out, Demko's doing just that. Glad to hear this.

The Vancouver Canucks have recalled goaltender Thatcher Demko from the AHL’s Utica Comets.

Have learned the #Canucks have called up goalie Thatcher Demko.

The move came on Friday, a day after Canucks goaltender Ryan Miller was forced to leave a game against the Tampa Bay Lightning with a suspected lower-body injury.

 

Demko, a native of San Diego, Calif., was selected by the Canucks in the second round of the 2014 NHL Draft and was the winner of the Mike Richter Award as the NCAA's most outstanding goaltender this past April with Boston College.

The 20-year-old has a 7-4-1 record with a 2.47 goals against average and .914 save percentage in 13 AHL games this season.

How's he been playing lately?

 

Taken quite a dip since his awesome streak earlier in the season. 

 

In his last 6 he has a 3.67 GAA and a .807 SV%

 

The team as a whole has been sliding hard lately though. They need Pedan and Biega back ASAP.

 

Not really fair to Demko to make him the starter in his first season on a team so poor. Bachman being back will likely take some pressure off.

At minimum, I was hoping management would have given him a solid experienced dcore to develop behind.
