BCNate Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Well his timeline to take over from Demko as starter lines up real nicely doesn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sativika Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Man. Ya' gotta love an underdog team playing in front of a home crowd and winning in the way Latvia did yesterday. Silovs for player of the tourney! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownUndaCanuck Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Silovs vs Sweden will be pretty epic, surely Sweden will wipe the floor with Latvia but hopefully Silovs has a good outing and puts his name on the big stage, up there with guys like Wolf. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point, there is no way I'd sign a 30 YO Demko long term. as good as he can be, I don't see him playing at a high level into his mid 30's with the injuries he has had.

Who will play with Demko this year then? We need Silovs right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think that Spencer Martin will be Demko's backup next year with Silovs being the call up if either tender gets hurt during the season.

The year after that Silovs will be the backup Although Demko's a great goalie, I still question his durability. Hopefully Martin has a solid start and is able to retain his career as an NHL backup. This would be the best scenario, as Demko won't have to get into the more intense situation(s) of multiple games without breaks. It also gives more time for Silovs to develop. The timing for Silovs to take on the backup role and then develop into the starter is looking very good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kootenay Gold Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 I will be looking forward to watching this new Belarusian goaltender Mikita Talapila make his debut in Abby this coming season. So; who might be the top prospect goalie now? They still have Koskenvuo, Thiessen who are 22 this yr. and Ty Young who is 18 in the reserve list.

Silovs is better than both, but needs starts in Abby. No sense sitting him on the bench 55 or games. He will get a number of games this year with the Canucks I'd assume, but most of his games will be in the AHL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything, by the midpoint of the season, make him the permanent backup. He proved it last year, and it was funny because some were thinking it could destroy his confidence. If that was the case, then he wasn't meant to be. Anyway, He can handle a good 25-30 games a year and take the pressure and workload of Demko. He's more than ready.
