Vancouver Canucks goaltender Kevin Lankinen (illness) will not dress on Saturday against Boston. According to reports, there's a flu bug going around in the Canucks locker room, and Lankinen has caught the illness, along with defenseman Derek Forbort, who also won't play. Arturs Silovs has been brought up from the AHL to work as Thatcher Demko's backup on Saturday. After recovering from a knee injury, Demko made his season debut this week against St. Louis. He suffered a 4-3 loss in overtime, saving 21 of 25 shots. It might take a while before we see the best of Demko following his lengthy absence, but he's expected to produce a winning performance on Saturday, with Vancouver a -135 favorite in the matchup.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
