The Canucks will turn to Demko for his third start this season. The 29-year-old Demko has struggled since making his debut last week, returning from a lower-body injury, allowing four or more goals in both games, posting a 4.47 GAA and .830 SV% in two contests (0-1-1). The Canucks enter Monday's contest as +134 home underdogs against a Colorado Avalanche club that has won four of their last five (4-1-0).

The Canucks will likely turn to Demko for his third start this season.

The 28-year-old Demko was tremendous for the Canucks last season, posting a career-best 2.45 GAA and .918 SV% in 51 games (35-14-2). Given the strong play of Kevin Lankinen in Demko's absence, Lankinen will likely continue to see a moderate workload while Demko acclimates back to game speed. The Canucks enter Tuesday's contest as -169 home favorites against the Blues.

Canucks' fans received some excellent news on Tuesday as their star goaltender Thatcher Demko returned to the ice and is skating and working out with indications of being healthy for training camp. Demko was originally expected to miss the beginning of training camp as his offseason recovery was taking longer than expected but that news has been flipped with his return Tuesday. The 28-year-old was key in Vancouver's success last season, with his 35-14-2 record, 2.45 GAA, .918 SV% and 5 shutouts.

Demko has not played since Game 1 vs. Nashville of Vancouver's opening-round series but has "improved immensely" and is expected back shortly. The 28-year-old's return will be a warm welcome after he led Vancouver all season with his 35-14-2 record, 2.45 GAA and .918 SV%.

Demko has been out since Vancouver's opening game of the playoffs and is expected to remain out until at least Game 4 of the Canucks' second series vs. Edmonton. The 28-year-old will be highly welcomed back if he can return after going 35-14-2 during the regular season and having a 2.45 GAA and .918 SV%.

Demko missed 14 games toward the end of the regular season due to a knee injury before returning for the final two games heading into the playoffs. He was solid in a 4-2 game-one victory over the Nashville Predators on Sunday, saving 20 of 22 shots (.909 SV%) but will be sidelined for game two and possibly beyond with an undisclosed injury. It is unclear if this injury is related to his previous ailment.

After returning from a multi-week injury on Tuesday, Demko will return to the crease for the Canucks for his second straight game. Demko was excellent in his return to action, picking up where he left off, saving 39 of 40 shots (.975 SV%) in a 4-1 victory over the Calgary Flames. The Canucks enter action as -107 road favourites on Thursday against the Winnipeg Jets.

Demko has missed the previous 14 games due to a knee injury but will make his much-anticipated return on Tuesday vs. Calgary. The 28-year-old will look to extend his personal three-game winning streak and build on his impressive 34-13-2 record, 2.47 GAA, .917 SV% and five shutouts on the season. He'll host the Calgary Flames on Tuesday, who despite being out of the playoffs have won their last two games but are ranked 17th in the NHL in goals per game (3.09).
