2025 Fantasy Outlook
Demko missed two months at the start of the season while recovering from a knee injury, and he also missed another month down the stretch due to a separate and unrelated lower-body injury. When healthy, Demko's play was far from his peak -- he went 10-8-3 with a 2.90 GAA and a .889 save percentage over 23 games. Given the nature of his previous knee injury, Demko represents a significant injury risk in fantasy. He's also got a lengthy list of other ailments over the years, though he should benefit from having a full offseason after the Canucks fell short of the playoffs. Even with a number of red flags, Demko is a talented goalie, so he's worth taking a gamble on in drafts for managers who have an otherwise trustworthy group of netminders. Read Past Outlooks

Expected to face Calgary
Demko is set to start at home against Calgary on Thursday, Jeff Paterson of CanucksArmy.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Demko underwhelmed in 2024-25 with a 10-8-3 record, 2.90 GAA and .889 save percentage in 23 outings, but injury issues were a major factor. Unlike last year, he's healthy going into this season. Demko is a prime candidate for a bounce-back campaign.

2014
Demko capped a career season in 2023-24 with a second-place finish in Vezina voting. He posted career highs in wins (35), save percentage (.918), goals-against (2.45) and shutouts (five). Additionally, he is the fifth active twine-tender to hit the 30-win mark in 40 games or less. Amidst the brilliance were two injuries - a knee injury March 5 that put him out for 14 games and a season-ending injury in Game 1 against Nashville. Don't forget he missed a significant number of games in 2022-23 with a groin injury. Demko is one of the most technically perfect goalies in the NHL and among the most driven, but to keep him in elite form, Vancouver must address load management to allow the kind of rest and recovery that will keep him in the blue paint. Even with his injury risk, Demko is an elite fantasy option.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Operating in starter's crease
Demko was in the starter's crease during Thursday's morning skate, Jeff Paterson of CanucksArmy.com reports, indicating that he'll likely draw the Opening Night start at home against the Flames.
ANALYSIS
Demko endured an injury-plagued season during the 2024-25 campaign, as he was limited to just 23 regular-season appearances. He went 10-8-3 with a 2.90 GAA and .889 save percentage, but he's healthy to begin the regular season in 2025-26 and should have an opportunity to earn primary goaltending duties early in the year. However, Kevin Lankinen will likely push for playing time if Demko struggles.
