If Boeser won’t re-sign for a reasonable rate I think we’ll trade him. He’s on pace for 30 goals this year, and netted 40 last year. Plus he’s still 27 and a worthwhile candidate to re-sign.

I think we should be able to get a 1st and a prospect / player. I’d rather get that, then flip that as a package for another player who’s under team control.
 
Jets make alot of sense for me.

They have 3.5m capspace available today which fits a %50 Brock Boeser perfect.

They have a bushel of 1st round equivilant players maybe one theyve soured on.

Rasmus Kupari, of RH shot and faceoff winning pedigree, it everything this team needs as a piece for today, even if hes worthless.

Any combo of Kupari and Barlow/Lambert or whoever for Boeser so Vancouver then uses that 8 mill elsewhere can be a win if we play it right.
Jets aren't trading Kupari plus a good prospect for Boeser. Kupari has been really strong filling in for Lowry. He's been a very strong defensive C and fits the Jets system to a T.

I think it's possible that the Jets overpay for Boeser but I think it's a bad idea. He's too much like Toffoli who didn't work out well for the Jets at all.
 
So, to me, seems like the following scenarios are most likely to happen (thinking of benefits on both sides):

Boeser with extension (fit + proximity to home), to:

WPG: (for some combo of Perfetti/Lambert/Yager(longshot), no picks)
CBJ: (for some combo of Sillinger/Del Bel Belluz+)

Boeser as a rental:

DAL: (some combo of Hemming/Minnetian + '26 1st w/protection/2nd)
NYR: (some combo of Berard/Othmann/Sykora/Emery - probably no pick)
NJD: (some combo of Tatar/Bastian for cap + '26 1st + '25 2nd)
mayyybe LA: (some combo of Turcotte/Thomas + Zimmer/Chromiak + '25 1st (protected)/'26 2nd)

Obviously the better the player(s), the lesser the draft pick(s), so I am not suggesting, for instance, Turcotte + 1st, or anything like that :laugh:

VAN obviously flips the futures packages and perhaps adds to add player(s) with team control (e.g. Zegras)
 
Why his comparable isn't Carter Verhaeghe is beyond me, I don't believe he should get more than 7 million tbh, he can't even drive his own line.
