After a rocky start to the season, Demko has settled in as one of the best goalies in the NHL. In the month of March, Demko was tied for third in the NHL in wins (8), eighth in SV% (.937) and tied for 11th in GAA (2.15). Demko has proven he is the goaltender of the future in Vancouver and earned a nice five-year extension, which kicks in next year.
Wolanin was a fourth-round pick of the Senators in 2015 and has scored five goals with 13 assists (18 points) in 58 career games since. Wolanin should be able to fight for playing time in Los Angeles, likely taking over Kurtis MacDermid's role as the seventh defenseman.
Wolanin played in six straight games but was seeing very limited ice time, especially in the three most recent games, where he played under 10 minutes in each game. Wolanin, who has three assists in 15 games this season, will be replaced by Braydon Coburn in the lineup but look for Mike Reilly to take over PP2 duties.
Coburn has been on the Senators' taxi squad but was called up on Thursday morning and will play for the first time since March 4th. Coburn, who has just one assist and a minus-6 rating in 11 games this season, will replace Christian Wolanin.
Heinen was one of four Ducks' players that was added to the COVID-19 protocol list on Tuesday, putting Wednesday's game in jeopardy. With Heinen likely unavailable vs. the Wild, look for Max Comtois to draw back into the lineup.
