Thatcher Demko Exits Game with New Lower-Body Injury Unrelated to Previous Issue

Vancouver Canucks goaltender Thatcher Demko was forced to leave Tuesday's game due to a lower-body injury. According to Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650, this new injury is considered distinct from the issue that led to Demko taking maintenance days over the past weekend. The severity and potential timeline for his return are currently unknown, but the development raises concerns given his recent history of lower-body issues, even if unrelated. Further updates are anticipated regarding Demko's condition.
