Status report
Vancouver did not hold a morning skate. DeSmith is likely to start after Demko made 30 saves in a 4-3 overtime win against the New York Islanders on Wednesday. ... Kuzmenko is questionable after he left at 7:35 of the third period against the Islanders when he was hit on the chin by a slap shot from Miller. ... Suter is questionable after the forward was a late scratch Wednesday. He is considered day to day. ... Markstrom, who made 34 saves in a 2-1 win at the Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday, will start consecutive games after missing two straight because of an undisclosed injury.
