Demko injured and potentially out for rest of series UPDATE: Demko is done?

[King Woodballs]

RIP Vancouver’s chances now

 

[swiftwin]

Canucks season is over

*Demkover

Cursed franchise, I blame Aquillini for the bad juju

 

[Aqualung]

Wish this could have lasted longer…

 

[MessierII]

Edmonton has a glorious chance now

They didn’t say anything about round 2

 

[DamonDRW]

What's about Alex Auld? I remember he was good for 2-3 saves in a game.

 

[LOFIN]

Has to be said, as good as he might be skills wise (perenial Vezina challenger), it doesn't do the Canucks much good if he's constantly injured.

 

[Pi]

Lots of over reaction here. Nashville isn’t the Avs or Oilers. They can’t score as much so as long as their back up is average, they should be fine.

 

[Aqualung]

They didn’t say anything about round 2

Rest of the series is a nice way of saying rest of the playoffs

 

[Chainshot]

Time for DeSmith to put on the cape and for the rest of the team to dig a little deeper.

 

[BonMorrison]

Have you watched Casey DeSmith?

I watched the Nashville Predators in Game 1 and that was enough.

f*** Edmonton….we are worried about our player and series…..

If this is true i feel terrible for their fans......I know how much they love their team (at least the ones i've come across)......

Best case scenario for the Canucks is they squeak out a series win with DeSmith/Silovs then Demko gets healthy for the second round. But I’d be skeptical about his health even then, just the way this is being described it seems like it’s not a small thing or some sort of nagging/recurring injury.

 

[VanCanucks53]

We really can’t have nice things. Happy for the first time in a decade and now this.

I’m not saying it’s over by any means but does feel like a punch to the gut in the moment.

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Might be time to crack each others skulls open & feast on the goo inside.

(Think we can still beat NSH but that'll be it without Demko)

 

[5 14 6 1]

Damn that's rough, maybe rushed back from his previous injury.

I still think they handle NSH

 

[Donuts]

Call up kirk mclean

[Billy Kvcmu]

It’s Joever

You thought Georgiev was bad

 

[McHelpus]

DeSmith has played 1 game in the playoffs in 2022:
.941% stopped 48 of 51 shots.

 

[Regal]

I’ll be tougher, but I think they could still take this series without him so fingers crossed. If he’s not at 100% the next series, I can’t see them having much of a chance against Edmonton assuming they advance.

 

[TMLeafer]

Yikes That's a huge blow to the Canucks.

Demko is a talented goalie but sadly seems to always be injured.
