Silovs will get the home start Friday versus Edmonton, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.
Silovs will play the whole game, according to coach Rick Tocchet. Silovs is currently battling Kevin Lankinen for the No. 1 job in Vancouver as Thatcher Demko is out of action with a knee problem. Silovs was 3-0-1 in four regular-season games with the Canucks last season and was 5-5 with a 2.91 GAA and an .898 save percentage in 10 playoff appearances, as the Canucks lost in seven games in the second round to the Oilers.
