Demko-less Canucks fall to Predators in Game 2

The Vancouver Canucks had the territorial advantage on home ice but couldn't turn it into their second win of their first-round series. With Thatcher Demko out of the lineup, Casey DeSmith drew into the lineup for the Canucks in Game 2 against the Nashville Predators. It was just his second-ever start in the NHL playoffs in his career. It started poorly for DeSmith, who let in a goal on the first shot he faced a minute into the game.
