Thatcher Demko has evolved, he no longer requires a goalie stick Unbelievable penalty kill emblematic of Canucks’ crazy push for the playoffs --------------------- After Thatcher Demko made his biggest save this season, his mom, Danielle, was caught on camera inside the rink in Dallas exclaiming what everyone else was thinking: “Oh, my god.” With just over eight minutes remaining and the Vancouver Canucks clinging to a 2-1 lead against the Stars in a game the Canadian visitors had to have to keep their playoff fantasy going, Demko looked beaten on a rebound but reached back with his right pad and elevated it, like a scorpion’s tail, just enough to rob Dallas defenceman Esa Lindell of a tying goal during a frantic power play. Twelve seconds later, with Demko now lunging around without a stick, Jason Robertson missed the net point-blank. Another dozen ticks later, Lindell had an open net and the puck again and somehow pushed his shot against the post while bothered from behind by Canuck Elias Pettersson. Then there were two more stickless saves by Demko on Robertson. Demko later described the sequence as “chaos.” Sportsnet play-by-play announcer John Shorthouse had another description, in real-time: “This is crazy.” It was. There is no way the short-handed Canucks should have survived those 40 seconds of chaos. But they did. And when Bo Horvat scored into an empty-net a little while later, followed by J.T. Miller’s last-minute goal, the Canucks had beaten the Stars 4-1 to inch within two points of Dallas and three points of the final playoff spot in the NHL’s Western Conference. Including a road win Wednesday against the Colorado Avalanche and an overtime loss Thursday against the Minnesota Wild, the Canucks have taken five out of six points against powerful teams whose home-ice records are an aggregate 69-20-5. And they’ve done this right after a discouraging 2-3-2 homestand in which the Canucks lost five of the final six games and looked spent after their months-long mission of desperation to somehow save their season following a 6-14-2 start. This is crazy. The Canucks are 24-11-7 since Bruce Boudreau became coach on Dec. 5. The whole thing is crazy. They have survived against odds, which are still overwhelmingly against them making the playoffs, for nearly four months. So those 40 seconds on Saturday night in Dallas? Well, maybe they just figure. These are the Canucks. “Chaos, I don’t know,” Demko said, five of his 36 saves coming during that late penalty kill. “We got a good bounce off the post there (from Lindell). A little bit of luck. Everyone’s just battling, just trying to keep the puck out of the net.” A little later, Demko, whose mental strength mirrors what the Canucks have shown, said: “The outcome’s not really in your control. You can just focus on each individual moment, each shot and each chance against, and kind of take it from there.” The Canucks have had an endless string of these big moments. On Saturday, these included Pettersson, who tied the game 1-1 at 15:25 of the second period, recognizing it was a forward he was skating one-on-one against when he backed up Joe Pavelski and then shot through the Star’s legs with a laser that beat Dallas goalie Jake Oettinger at 1:15 of the final period.

"What a save by DEMKO!! Oh My Goodness!!

Wow I didn't even realize that. I will forever love this clip
He hit the post! HE HIT THE POST!
what did he hit? THE FUCKING POST
I CANT BELIEVE IT!
@@jdplumber007 "Thatcher is a man of focus, commitment, sheer will. I once saw him stop three men in a hockey game with a post. With a FUCKING post"

@@diegobordones2106your laughing in one of the worst Canadian teams
whenever demko losses a piece of gear (referring to Nov 2021 vs Rangers game), he makes the most miraculous saves.
Hughson was great and memorable, Shorthouse is GOAT status
Pettersson got his stick in there at the last second to help that puck hit the post as well. Nicely done.
This might have been Shorthouse’s finest segment, just as solid as Demko last night.
Agreed
When Demko loses his stick it's his ultimate form....Not to be fucked with at that point.
You're a gem, this title made me laugh so hard, he's a god send😂😂
Might just be the best call shorty’s ever made
THATCHER THE GOD DAMN SNATCHER IS UNBEATABLE🏆💙🤍💚
10000/10 Shorty is GOATED
Some of Shorty's best calls in his career were in this clip.
Another amazing Boston College hockey product.

He never required a glove either
Demko is going to be talked about when canucks goalies come up in a conversation
I would hope so he is there starting goalie
Wow, That's a Hat Picks and Dang it in one clip
He got his stick lifted
"RADIOACTIVE" CANUCKS. Imagine THATCHER DEMKO singing Imagine Dragons' RADIOACTIVE on the net cause he looks like DAN REYNOLDS.
Future Vezina winner right here.
Unbelievable
Dang that powerade ad is distracting
I can't believe it!!!!
Humanity has evolved passed the point of needing Goalie Sticks for Hockey.
it's funny how weird goalies look without sticks
DEMKO!!!!!!!
D uni's are nearly 100% awesome.
They’re ugly they look like bad eashl jerseys
Not a huge fan of the neon green
Now the Canucks will surely win the cup :' )
" ...This is crazy! "
Wow. Horrible call u throughout this mess..
its confirmed. im 110 percent demko is not human but in a fact an android. android 35 to be exact
A 10 year old could have scored on the shot he hit the post on
Made one save without the stick... lol. Good grief
And that’s why the Stars are a mediocre team

Now let's show him giving up 13 goals in 5 periods. That's my favorite Demko clip from this season. Shorty and John were pretty quiet those 2 games.
Aren’t you a sad, little boy…
He got lucky that's all
🙄
Amazing saves, only got lucky with the open net though. Lindell sold lol
@@appa1230 40 got his stick in there
