Analysis:
Owners will be relieved to know that Demers isn't dealing with a long-term issue, as he's played pretty well this season, notching 19 points (seven goals, 12 assists) and 77 shots on goal in 48 games. Expect an update on the 27-year-old blueliner's status ahead of puck drop Saturday evening.
