The Dallas Stars have advanced to the Stanley Cup final, knocking off the Vegas Golden Knights 4 games to 1. I had picked Vegas to win the series, but instantly regretted it.
Something just wasn't right with Vegas. And clearly there is a lot right with Dallas right now.
There is a lot at play here and it's complicated, but ultimately it's an enviable position for a team to be in. Jacob Markstrom is arguably one of the five best goalies in the league in the last season and a half.
So with that in mind, the best way for the Canucks to win games next year is with Markstrom in net, with Demko as the back up.
And there is no better way to get that impact defenseman than to trade Demko at the right time.
