The Vancouver Canucks had their Vezina runner-up goaltender Thatcher Demko back in the starters crease on Tuesday night against the St. Louis Blues. While it was a losing effort, it looked like the Demko Canucks fans are used to seeing.

There could have been some measure of rust, but trust was the bigger must for Thatcher Demko on Tuesday at Rogers Arena. The Vancouver Canucks starting goaltender finally returned after suffering a left-knee popliteus muscle injury on April 21 during late stages of Game 1 in a first-round playoff series against the Nashville Predators.
