Update on Thatcher Demko's health: Important detail left out of the most recent report
In a recent discussion on the Halford & Brough show, NHL.com analyst Kevin Woodley provided some intriguing insights into the current situation surrounding Thatcher Demko.
There's been a swirl of rumors in the goalie world suggesting that Demko may have undergone a procedure for his injury in the off-season, but as Woodley emphasized, nothing has been confirmed at this point.
Demko missed games in 4 different stints last season due to a knee injury, including 12 playoff games.
As reported yesterday, analysts are expecting the Canucks to shop around for depth at the goaltending position should Demko not be ready.
The uncertainty surrounding Demko's status has left fans and analysts speculating about what this means for the upcoming season. Injuries have hindered the vezina candidate since entering the NHL. Will Demko bounce back in time to take his place between the pipes, or will the Canucks have to explore other options? As the situation develops, the hope is that more concrete information will come to light.
For now, all eyes are on Demko, waiting to see how things unfold as we edge closer to the regular season.
