Vancouver Canucks GM Ryan Johnson discussed the team's complicated four-goalie situation involving Thatcher Demko, Kevin Lankinen, Nikita Tolopilo, and Leevi Meriläinen. With all needing waivers to be sent down, Johnson noted that managing a three-goalie system is difficult and decisions on exposing a player to waivers will be made following upcoming preseason action. Demko will open the season on IR, leaving difficult choices ahead for the front office regarding roster limits.
