Thatcher Demko Gets The Start Thursday
Vancouver Canucks goaltender Thatcher Demko will start Thursday's game against the Edmonton Oilers. The 25-year-old posted a 13-10-2 record last year, before excelling across a four-game stretch in the playoff bubble.

Jonathan Toews Placed On Injured Reserve
Chicago Blackhawks center Jonathan Toews (undisclosed) was placed on the long-term Injured Reserve on Thursday afternoon.

Read More
Ilya Samsonov In Net For Season Opener
Washington Capitals goaltender Ilya Samsonov will start Thursday's game against the Buffalo Sabres.

Pittsburgh Penguins goaltender Tristan Jarry gave up six goals on 25 shots during Wednesday's loss to the Philadelphia Flyers.

Vegas Golden Knights left wing Alex Tuch (undisclosed) will play in Thursday's season opener against the Anaheim Ducks.
