This announcement comes amidst a whirlwind of speculation surrounding Demko's injury status, which has been a hot topic since his injury that took him out of the playoffs. Fans have been eager for updates all summer, and it looks like tomorrow's presser will finally shed some light on what's going on.
The most significant update on Thatcher Demko's injury came from Elliotte Friedman's latest 32 Thoughts podcast. Friedman admitted that the Vancouver Canucks' No. 1 goalie remains a mystery, with nobody genuinely knowing the whole story. He mentioned hearing several different timelines, none of which match up.
One key point Friedman made is that Demko's injury isn't something that can be fixed through surgery. Instead, Demko will have to adapt and play through it.
Aside from this insight, the rumours about Demko's condition seem to change by the day, leaving fans and media speculating on what the future holds for the Canucks' star netminder. Rick Tocchet stated that there wasn't a timeline for Demko's return yet, this press conference will most likely provide an in-depth update on the star's condition.
