Vancouver Canucks goaltender Thatcher Demko left Saturday night’s game against the Toronto Maple Leafs just 10 minutes into the first period after appearing to tweak something in the knee area during warmups. While there was no clear in-game moment to point to in which he might have suffered an injury during the time he played.

Demko has won his last two outings, stopping 58 of 59 shots and earning his first shutout of 2024-25. He has a 6-6-3 record with a 2.90 GAA and an .889 save percentage through 16 appearances this season. Toronto is tied for 11th in the league with 3.11 goals per game this campaign.

They held the Avalanche to 25 shots and became the second team this year to shut out Colorado. Ultimately, the Canucks were able to frustrate the Avalanche and were able to hold them to six high-danger chances on the night.

That’s a real solid result. The Vancouver Canucks shut out the Colorado Avalanche by a 3-0 scoreline, looking pretty darn convincing throughout the contest.
