Good choice.

Great for Demko. Great for the Canucks. Great for the fans.

More narrative busting points for the Canucks. Another narrative busting piece of the rebuild. This place has always been my favourite source for sports fiction.

Demko 2-0
- VANTEL

I'm seeing a .923 SV% which is great

The goals were nice tonight

Demko seems to be in the perfect scenario. He can be the backup, spend lots of time refining his structure, and they can be choosy about when he plays

Sutter -2

Next year he can split duties with Markstrom and then take over

Nice to see some others score some goals. Lets hope other keep scoring and could see some more wins

I like the progressing. I thought Sven and Leivo keep improving , as painful as it is to say Loui has had 3 good games. Jake had a good game.

Meh, if they go 50-30 next year and either bring Markstrom back on a 2 yr deal or let him walk and find a Halak/Hutton/etc. type for the same role.

I just saw the Baertschi goal, minivan you could've scored that one. Nice little dangle by Poopalot.

I'm sad Jake isn't scoring but he's becoming a bit chippy which is a nice welcome change. If he can sorta be like Rousell that way it'll help him be more a presence when he isn't scoring.

I'd really like Jake to get reps on the PK. Even if its cleanup time late.

You mean Marky playing 50 I hope ? I expect Demko to play 30 at the most next year

If we get Quinn in the line up this season... what a indulgence for the prospect hungry fans. EP, Gaudette, Demko, Hughes... it feels good... I got to tell ya.

Sure is nice to play sloppy and get points, great game demmer, petey back and everyone will pick up there game moving forward

I think 30 to 35 games next year for Demko is about right. It's not the same for everyone though, he may steal the show, injuries, you never know. Love to see him play well. Always liked that pick by Benning.

They developed him nicely!!

Played around 100 games in the AHL. Patience.

Didn’t they turn his brain to mush by tossing him into a cargo container and flying him to Istanbul after a severe concussion ?

Interestingly enough I kind of agree butt kind of don’t.

I strongly disagree, yet confidently agree.

Edmonton is where good prospects go to bust.

I think 10-12 games is the sweet spot this year for him.

Green, and Clark, both seem to really believe in practice time more than any coaches I can remember in town. Don't remember hearing so much about how they set "deadlines" to get players into the lineup based on whether they got a practice or two in.

Clark seems like a huge practice guy as well. They basically used Nilsson only to spell Markstrom when they thought he got sloppy and needed a couple hard days to get his technique back. And apparently Clark and Demko were going bananas in practice to get him ready for the game.

They did learn from their mistakes because they made OJ walk to LA to check out his knee . No more planes for injured players.
