Rumors are swirling around that this will be the last visit we'll see from the Phoenix/Arizona edition of this franchise.

So let's send them off the right way, with a decisive loss.

Any update on Demko? Thought this would be a game they would target to bring him back and get some reps before the playoffs.

Demko has started practicing, but I don't think he's ready just yet. Hopefully very soon.

Yotes on the end of 3 games in 4 nights. This 'should' be a W.

I'll go with 5-2 for the Nucks.

Hopefully the spartan visitor dressing rooms of Mullett Arena will instill a workmanlike attitude in the boys to prepare them for the playoffs.

7-3 Canucks

Petey with an easy hat trick.

I think I read somewhere they were targeting Saturday for Demko.. but that would be the oilers and sounds crazy. I hope I just made that up.

Rumour is McJesus will be out but yeah, that is not an ideal first game back scenario.

Ya I read where they tentatively have Demko penciled in for the Oilers game. It’s actually a good game to get him back. One with meaning and one where he can get up for. His knee injury, from what I e heard, was minor and if these games were critical for us to make the playoffs he would have played through. I think Tocchet said it best, they played well enough all year to put themselves in a position where they could sit guys out.

Demko should get 2 of the last 3 games with DeSmith getting the other. Giving She-loves tonight’s game is a huge reward for him as well as a chance to get a closer look. Hard not to see him being our back up next year.

Good idea to get PDG a game before the playoffs too. Tough it is at Podkolzin’s expense I guess. But a healthy PDG in game shape is more important for us heading into the playoffs. He can play in the bottom 9, we know he played well with Boeser and Miller, and has more experience.

Can Podkolzin be sent back to Abbotsford or does he need to clear waivers? If he can be sent back that is where I would park him. A top 6 role with plenty of ice time will do wonders for his confidence. With him it’s all about being ready for next season.

This is a must win if we want to hold onto the division.

I know that part but I was wondering about waivers. Does he need to clear waivers?

Pod doesn't require waivers.
