The Arrogant Worms Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 VANCOUVER – Thatcher Demko is keenly aware of the goaltending legacy now entrusted to him. Roberto Luongo actually captained the Vancouver Canucks. After him came Cory Schneider, and then Ryan Miller, followed soon by Jacob Markstrom. Long before Luongo, there was Kirk McLean. These were not only excellent goalies, but fascinating people, thoughtful when they spoke. They became leaders. At 27 and about to begin his fourth season as Canucks starter after succeeding Markstrom, Demko has shown he can be an excellent goalie in the National Hockey League https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/do-or-die-demko-ready-to-lead-canucks-to-success-from-between-the-pipes/ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Luongo, Mclean, and not mentioned above, Richard Brodeur being our backstops during our three Stanley Cup Finals appearances; all three acquired from other teams via trade. 6 hours ago, Dumb Nuck said: Sadly I have to say no, he will not lead us to the promised land. I'm actually hopeful that he will. What a story that would be for the Canucks. Not that it's anything new, but a career player with one organization going all the way> Why not. It worked for Marty Brodeur. Of course, it wouldn't surprise me in the least if we traded for another goalie to get us the cup. It seems the Canuck way. But it'd sure be cool if he is the one. We're a ways away from this scenario though. Let's just get in the playoffs first. Go Canucks Go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miller, Boeser, and all the players need to play good right off the hop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck You Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 After the finish he had last season there's no reason to believe that Dark Demko is now activated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
