[Irfaan Gaffar] On dirait que Thatcher Demko a subi un revers et a peaufiné quelque chose à l’entraînement jeudi. Les #Canucks ne connaîtront pas toute l’étendue de la blessure avant quelques jours.
Sounds like Thatcher Demko suffered a setback and tweaked something in practice on Thursday. #Canucks won’t know full extent of injury for a few days.

Sad for Thatcher. But good news for Team Tank
take year off pls
*tank noises*
I feel bad for Demko though, hope everything will be ok with him if this is true
Demko should just take the L and come back next season when he is 100%.
Demko in it for bedard
Does that mean Martin is coming back? Silovs should keep playing in the AHL to develop.
Ends the trade talk
So we running Delia and Silvos? 2 AHL goalies. That’s a bold strategy.
Few hours ago Tocchet said Demko was fine lol
At this point just shut him down for the season. No sense risking aggravating an injury in meaningless games that we want to lose.
I’m just iffy about believing this, especially after all these reports by the media just to have them be false such as demko not being happy and “recent” talks with Toronto about Myers.
I just don’t believe it unless a guy like dhaliwal confirms it.
Yes tank yes tank
Canucks luck folks… or a sign that Bedard is ours oh my!!!!!!
We’re finishing 3rd.
Team Tank Forever!
**Unleash Spencer Martin**
I remember something about us running demko into the ground last season…
Lots of comments about happy helping the tank.
How about the guys health and long term effects. Not a good sign. See you next year man.
Sleeper Cell Tank Agent Demko has been activated
This is what annoys me the most. Season is done, I get that the player wants to play as much as possible, but in situations like these, why doesn’t the org take the sensible decision and shut down the player, let him come back next season stronger. He is an important piece for the future.
Honestly hoping they just shut him down. Tank aside, we’re absolutely screwed if Demko isn’t able to return to form, and have no reason to rush this process. Glad to see even just this amount of care and time being taken, but was kinda surprised he didn’t start out practicing with the Abbey Canucks for a « conditioning stint »
Just shut him down for the remainder of the season and get him back properly next season.
Not predictable at all, lol #tankharder
This reminds me of when DiPietro needed to be traded to play more games – now he’s in the ECHL rather than probably with the big club after this nows. How ironic
The stars seem to be aligning for us to get a high pick. Hopefully we get a high pick and get a stud Center and then with our other puck get Dman. The future will look a lot brighter all of a sudden.
This team is past needing a rebuild. They have to call a priest to excersize their demons because their house is on cursed graveyard
Shut him down for the year.
jesus, i was literally just thinking about this happening this morning, especially after demko seemed kinda unconfident/hesistant in his interview recently. Shut him the fuck down for the rest of the season and let him heal properly. ffs, canucks management. we literally have no reason to have him playing. i guess they wanted to try and get slick rick some wins down the stretch with demko playing, but it’s not going to happen now. just suck hard for bedard and let me die in peace.

uhg that is fucking terrible…. poor thatcher, he was quite anxious for his return but you could tell it felt really good for him to be back around the playing environment
4th-6th is looking like a lock at this point.
« Ah, fuck, I think I pulled my Bedard tendon… take me off, coach »
-Thatcher Demko, probably
His back realized what the next two months were going to look like for him and took a dive to save him
