Description
Why trading for an NHL goaltender is harder than ever Tandem goaltender setups have become increasingly popular across the NHL, with only a select group of teams playing a bonafide No. 1 starter.

Vancouver Canucks: Team of destiny After missing the playoffs by 12 points last season, the Vancouver Canucks are off to the best start in franchise history (9-2-1) but how long can Quinn Hughes, Elias Pettersson and particularly goaltender Thatcher Demko keep the juggernaut rolling?
