The Vancouver Canucks are set to continue their five-game road trip as they face the New York Rangers on Tuesday evening. This matchup marks an opportunity for the Canucks to secure back-to-back wins for the first time since October 19, 2025.
Canucks Lineup and Key Players
Thatcher Demko will take the net for the Canucks, marking his third consecutive start. Demko has demonstrated a strong performance against the Rangers, holding a career record of 3-1-0 alongside an impressive .935 save percentage. His only defeat against New York occurred earlier this season when the Rangers secured a 2-0 victory at Rogers Arena.
Brock Boeser Update
Another point of interest is Brock Boeser, who was notably absent from the morning skate due to some discomfort. Though concerns over a potential appendix issue were raised earlier, team officials clarified that it is not illness-related. Adam Foote confirmed that Boeser is determined to keep playing but is advised to take a day or two if needed to prevent any further complications.
