Vancouver Canucks goaltender Thatcher Demko is week-to-week with a lower-body injury, the team announced, according to Postmedia's Ben Kuzma.
Demko isn't expected to travel on Vancouver's five-game road trip, which begins Saturday in Vegas against the Golden Knights.
The road trip features two back-to-backs, so both Kevin Lankinen and Arturs Silovs project to see action.
Demko has been limited to just 17 appearances this season due to injury. He got off to a rough start upon returning, with a .867 save percentage in his first 12 games. He had begun rounding into form, though, posting a .955 mark in his last five contests.
