Keep him in AHL? Promote him to NHL? Canucks prospect backstops Latvia to World Hockey Championship bronze
Spencer Knight, 21, of the Florida Panthers logged 21 games in 2022-23, which is the equivalent workload of an NHL backup. There was also a trio of 22-year-old goalies — Lukas Dostal of the Anaheim Ducks, Akira Schmid of the New Jersey Devils and Mads Sogaard of the Ottawa Senators — who played 19, 18 and 19 games respectively this season.
“There’s no sense in having him here on a full-time basis if Thatcher is playing 80 per cent of the games,” said former NHL goalie and broadcaster John Garrett. “The advantage of having the farm team in Abbotsford is you could let him play on a regular basis there and bring him in if there are any injuries and for some spot duty.”
Kelly Hrudey also played his minor-league dues before becoming a starter with the New York Islanders, Los Angeles Kings and San Jose Sharks. Mika Zibanejad raced down the wing, faked a wrister, and Silovs opened up the wickets to allow a five-hole goal. Artemi Panarin then followed by taking a cross-ice feed and whipping a shot home before Silovs could get from post to post.
