“It’s been tough watching the boys go through the playoff run, so you don’t want to step in and ruin it for them or not contribute in a positive way,” Demko said following Monday’s game.

Canucks’ captain Quinn Hughes was happy to see Demko back in action and spoke highly of the netminder when Amazon interviewed him following the game.

“We’ve been here together for six years, he’s a Vezina-type goalie, definitely could have probably won the Vezina last year. When he’s in the net, it’s a different feeling,” said Hughes. “He’s just one of the most competitive guys I know.”
