Why Demko two in row? Are they showcasing him? I suspect Canuck fans might not recognize this lineup after the TDL.

Wouldn't be shock to me if both Demko and Boeser are gone. I think Rutherford and Allvin will give it another month. But if they're out of playoff contention, or at about only a 20 percent chance of making it, the hammer will come down.

He's our number one guy, they're trying to help him get back into form and retake the reins. Tocchet's clearly hoping the increased ice time will get him there. Lankinen's play notwithstanding, this is still Demko's team.
 
Canucks now 0-4 on the PP. That's all she wrote.

There's so little room out there five-on-five, if you don't punish a team like Dallas on the PP, you're basically done.

There are some guys in this lineup I just don't get. Obviously the blueline has a lot of them, but another guy up front I just can understand is Heinen. He's not fast; can't handle the puck; and consistently gets blown up along the wall.

I'd rather see Sasson or even Lekkerimaki up here. They need the experience far more than Heinen.

If this team is serious about actually winning anything you go with the guy who is actually winning you games. I love Demko and he’s given this team so much but he is playing awful since coming back and should not be forced starts
