Thatcher Demko's performance against the Boston Bruins was overshadowed by a disappointing team effort, leading to a 5-1 loss. Coach Rick Tocchet acknowledged the need for better support in front of Demko, who faced relentless pressure from the Bruins.
Despite a promising start to the season, the Canucks struggled to generate offense, with their first power play yielding no shots. Max Sasson scored his first NHL goal late in the game, but it wasn't enough to change the outcome.
Demko, returning from a knee injury, is still finding his rhythm, and the team is cautious about overworking him. The Canucks look to improve as they prepare for upcoming games against the Colorado Avalanche and Vegas Golden Knights.
