It's nice theory..."leave Demko in the AHL until he's 'ready' for the NHL......but unfortunately there's not much more Demko can do to get 'ready' for the NHL, facing AHL shooters night after night.....the difference in speed, finesse and shot quality is just that much more advanced at the NHL level. And then there's the theory, "you can't expose Demko to this trainwreck of a Canucks team without damaging his confidence". Nonsense. His team in Utica is currently comprised of ECHL callups and PTO's. And besides, after Jimbo guts this team at the trade deadline and the Sedins retire, does anyone out there really believe this "trainwreck" team will be much better next year? Nope, time to get him some NHL action.
