Markstrom has been phenomenal. Demko has played less and has also been phenomenal.
My guess? Canucks goaltending doesn't miss a beat.
Edit - Province is reporting it's a torn meniscus. Nothing on severity or when he happened. Some speculation it was when he got bowled over in the Minnesota game. So that means he possibly played then Boston game with it.
Domingue makes sense, especially if this is a minor issue. Means we don't have to bring DiPietro up, who is currently the starter down in Utica and playing well. Domingue will still be waiver eligible if Markstrom is back quickly, allowing him to be sent down and play a back-up role to DiPietro after Richard Bachman went back to Europe.
