Rumor: Dhaliwal: Canucks and Boeser have had 0 talks regarding new contract/ If nothing before TDL, they will move him.

[Siludin]

People seem to be really doubting what this cap increase is going to do to salaries over the next few years.
I'd lock in anyone I could this year. There's going to be a big correction.

How is this pressuring him to sign? If anything, this is just making him want to get out of that cancer locker room asap.

He gets to go to a contender who likely will also want to pay him (if they are giving up significant assets).

That said, I'd be scared to death to sign this guy to anything more than 4-5 years. He's linemate dependent with significant injury concerns. He's also a weak skater at 28. What's that going to look like?

How? Brock loves Van and wants to stay.............this is from the same playbook management used to pressure EP to sign last year. It's blatantly obvious. Where do you think this rumour came from? Van runs a VERY tight ship.........in general nothing gets leaked unless they want it to.

its gonna look like Tyler Toffolli scoring 30 goals a year

 

[My3Sons]

Haven’t thr Canucks gone down this road with Boeser before and ultimately didn’t trade him and they agreed to a short extension? I’m guessing Boeser can return a very late first or maybe two seconds but is that really helpful for Vancouver? Isn’t their ownership opposed to a rebuild? The team is in a tough spot.

 

[Hockeyfan200]

I doubt the Canucks will give Brock what He wants. Eight plus million? It is unfortunate because He has been Here so long, and He is all around a good Guy and teammate.
Why don't the Wild part ways with Kaprizov and bring Brock home?

lol that you posted this is laughable! Ooh yeah, wild should trade their franchise for free agent they don’t need lol

Toffoli didn't have the same injury concerns before his 28th birthday.

 

[kanucks25]

This Canucks core is really going to die for Jimmy Rutherford and Rick Tocchet. Wow

What has anyone in this Canucks core done? Compare it to what the two guys you mention have done in their careers.

It's a one man team with Hughes. The others have made it abundantly clear they are not to be counted on.

I would only sign him if I'm a contender with a good playmaking center looking for a pure goal scoring winger.

Boeser is a product of his team/linemates but not everyone can score 40 goals just because they're playing with good players.

If he's in a strong environment he will flourish, but he's one of those guys that looks horrendous if things around him aren't clicking.

I'd be very interested if I was NJD, DAL, etc.

 

[Three On Zero]

Hasn’t it already been said by both Boeser’s camp and Allvin that they are in no rush to work on a contract, they want the season to play out more.

 

[CanMerc]

Always said I’d love him on the Jets

Boeser is a good player, I'd love him on Edmonton stapled to Drai's wing. I just won't like the contract or his injury concerns. McDrai are absolute horses who rarely get hurt (knocking on wood), spending cap on a guy you aren't sure can make it through a season would scare me to death.

I honestly think trading him would be a savvy move by Vancouver. They have Lekkermaki coming up, DeBrusk has been solid, albeit unspectacular, but he's a much more versatile forward.

Boeser's been pretty healthy over the past 5 seasons. He's played in over 90% of those games.

He only missed games this season because of a dirty headshot from Jeannot, which I wouldn't consider an "injury prone" type of injury.

Difference this time is that he would be a ufa when the contract expires. Last time he was a rfa but had a high QO number which they both decided to do a 3 year deal instead.

At 28 in 2025, that’s when players aim for max term. Team overall has not performed well enough.

Wonder if Winnipeg takes the gamble of own-rental on Ehlers with the intention of offering a deal to Boeser. Would be a solid signing if they could get him.

 

[MagnumForce2]

Say it ain’t so.

 

[Diogenes92]

Trade him at 50% retention at the deadline for a haul.

 

[MessierThanThou]

It's sad to think that just last year, if Demko stays healthy, Canucks probably win the Cup

 

[unicornpig]

Toffoli is 5 years older and has literally never scored 40 goals in his career, so I don't think it's unreasonable to expect Brock to return more than Toffoli.

Either way he's a rental and age doesn't matter. Also boeser scored 40 once on an obvious outlier year haha
