Canucks' Demko still 'week-to-week,' misses Game 3 vs. Predators

It's a tough day for Vancouver Canucks fans.

Head coach Rick Tocchet reiterated on Friday that Thatcher Demko will not play the next few playoff games and is still "week-to-week."

The 28-year-old goaltender suffered an undisclosed injury during the Canucks' 4-2 win over the Nashville Predators in Game 1.

Tocchet told reporters ahead of Game 2 that Demko was considered day-to-day, but was downgraded to week-to-week following further evaluation.

Demko missed 14 games with a lower-body injury at the end of the Canucks' Pacific Division-winning season. He returned for their penultimate regular-season game, where he secured a 4-1 victory.

Tocchet previously said his earlier injury is unrelated to the one sidelining him from the playoffs.

The Canucks visit the Predators on Friday for Game 3 of their Stanley Cup Playoffs series.

The puck drops at 7:30 p.m. ET / 4:30 p.m. PT on Sportsnet and Sportsnet+.
