Again, the difference between Demko and Binnington or Murray is that Demko was expected to be that good. It wasn't really "out of nowhere"

But yes, playing "THAT" well over a full season would be absolutely unreal. I just hope it's got him over that hump of not remembering how to stop a puck in the first five minutes of the game.
I think a guy like Talbot or Rittich would be a good tandem with Demko. Guys who have played in the league for a few years and have played a 1a 1b type system before.

Help Demko get his feet wet in the league without all the pressure of having to be the guy right out of the gate.

Plus the cap hit could be something that the Canucks could absorb.

Wonder if a trade could be had to send Rittich there for a return that would include the rights to Markstrom?

Could perhaps could work for both sides.
