Vancouver Canucks goalie Thatcher Demko hopes to be back with team on Saturday
The 27-year-old netminder told reporters Tuesday that he plans to act as the Canucks’ backup on Saturday when Vancouver hosts the Philadelphia Flyers.
For Demko, getting back to trusting himself and his biomechanics has been a process – one that will continue as he prepares to retake the starter’s net. With Demko out, Collin Delia was called up from the American Hockey League’s Abbotsford Canucks to work in tandem with backup Spencer Martin. Delia eventually emerged as the No. 1 in Demko’s absence, and Vancouver placed Martin on waivers Monday.
The numbers were well below the 2.72 goals-against average and the .915 save percentage the San Diego, Calif., native posted across 64 appearances last season.
