He will take on the red-hot Carolina Hurricanes, who have won 11 of their last 14 games and are currently 10th in the NHL in goals per game (3.38).

Demko will start against the Blackhawks on Monday.

Demko has won six straight and will return to the crease on Monday evening in a favourable matchup against the Chicago Blackhawks. During his six-game winning streak, Demko has allowed three or more goals four times but has salvaged a stellar .923 SV%. The Canucks are significant -416 home favourites against a low-scoring Blackhawks team that has scored fewer than two goals in five of their last six games (2-4-0).

Demko will start Thursday vs. Columbus.

Demko will attempt for his fifth straight win on Thursday when the Canucks host the Arizona Coyotes. Demko was terrific in his last outing, saving all 26 shots he faced in a 1-0 victory over the Buffalo Sabres for his fourth shutout of the season. The Pacific division-leading Canucks are - 198 home favourites against a Coyotes club that has points in three of their last four (2-1-1).

Demko will start Thursday in Pittsburgh.

Demko did not play on Tuesday, the back end of a back-to-back, a 5-2 victory over the New York Islanders, but will return to the crease on Thursday in search of his third straight win. Demko has been unspectacular lately, allowing three or more goals in six of his last seven games, but his .898 SV% in that stretch has been enough to salvage a 5-1-1 record. The Canucks are +113 road underdogs against a Pittsburgh Penguins club that handily defeated the Philadelphia Flyers 4-1 in their last game.

Demko will start Monday in New York.

Demko has started three straight games for the Canucks and will start again on Monday, the front end of a back-to-back. Demko has been solid all season but is amid a weaker run of play, allowing three or more goals in four of his last five games (3-1-1), posting an uncharacteristically low .891 SV%. The Canucks are coming off a 6-4 win over the New Jersey Devils on the weekend but are +129 road underdogs against a New York Rangers club that has collected at least a point in three of their last four (2-1-1).

Demko will start Thursday in St. Louis.

Demko will start his second straight game and look for his third consecutive victory for the Canucks on Thursday. The 28-year-old Demko has helped his team collect a point in his last seven games (6-0-1), allowing three or fewer goals five times and posting a serviceable .917 SV%. The Canucks are -147 road favourites against a St. Louis Blues team that has lost two straight, being outscored 6-3.

Thatcher Demko will start Tuesday vs. Ottawa.

Demko and Casey DeSmith have split starts over the last six games, but the Canucks will turn back to Demko on Tuesday. The 28-year-old Demko has been stellar for the Canucks all season, highlighted by a current six-game stretch (5-0-1), where he has posted a .916 SV%. The Canucks have not played since December 28th, a 4-1 loss to the Philadelphia Flyers, and should be well rested as -143 home favourites against the Ottawa Senators, who have won three of their last four games (3-1-0).
