There's been an official injury update on Thatcher Demko, and it appears that he has suffered a groin injury and could miss two to three weeks, or more. Canucks starting netminder Thatcher Demko will <a href='https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/canucks-thatcher-demko-out-two-to-three-weeks-with-injury/' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>miss two to three weeks, or possibly more</a>, with an apparent groin injury he sustained in last night's loss to the Jets, Frank Seravalli reports. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/BR_OpenIce/status/1988622927084822668'><div style='border:1px solid #CCCCCC;border-radius:10px;padding:20px;width:300px;'>Loading from Twitter ...</div></a></blockquote></div> <h3>What Thatcher Demko is currently suffering from</h3> It's reportedly a new groin issue that's entirely unrelated to the knee issues he's had over the past couple of years and also irrelevant to why he didn't dress for a few games early this week. After his lingering knee issues and a few other ailments limited Demko to just 23 appearances last season, he was back to looking like a legitimate starting netminder this season. He started hot, compiling a .911 SV% and a 5-4-0 record in his first nine games, until he allowed three goals on eight shots last night <a href='https://www.hockeylatest.com/nhl/injuries/adam-foote-shares-update-on-thatcher-demko-injury-status-after-game-vs-jets' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>before leaving the game after the first 20 minutes.</a> <h3>Why the Canucks hope Thatcher Demko doesn't miss too much time</h3> That showing brought his year-to-date save percentage down to .903, along with a 2.80 GAA, still respectable numbers. They are still far superior to what No. 2 option Kevin Lankinen has put up so far, with a .885 SV%, 3.57 GAA, and a 3-5-1 record. It appears to be a relatively minor groin strain that occurred when he stretched across his crease to make a save on Jets forward Cole Perfetti. He played out the first period and took a skate as players warmed up for the second, but ended up giving up the net to Lankinen, who saved 20 of 21 shots in relief, as the Canucks fell to the Jets.
