Rumor: End of an era with Boeser and Canucks. Boeser: "Honestly its unlikely at this point (to re-sign)". Where does he go and for how much?

[DemidovSaveUs]

He can come to MN but not for 8

 

[TheReelChuckFletcher]

Does he need to take a 1 year (7-8 million) prove it year? Sign with a good team or get promised to play with a top tier center at a discount? Or does he get a regrettable offer like Boston signing Lindholm?

Carolina would likely salivate if the former is possible. Remember, the Canes wanted to trade for Boeser but the clock ran out after the Rantanen transaction took the entire deadline to complete.

 

[TheGreenTBer]

I mean he's the reason they are still selling tickets after a losing season

I don't mean to speak for Vancouver fans, but I'm confident they'd say the following, or some variation of it: I don't give a damn.

Bruins will sign everybody in summer. They pissed with tons of cap space.

Let's not rush it, Don. The wiser we are the further we'll go

In for Boeser, but don't want to throw too much at anyone

 

[TheReelChuckFletcher]

Carolina, being a far better team with the same sort of cap situation, likely gets first dibs on the free agent market.

He can come to MN but not for 8

How about he comes to Minnesota to stop by and have lunch with you and @Dr Jan Itor and then signs with Boston for 8 shortly after

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Rossi
Nelson
Boeser

2 of the 3 will be in Minnesota next year, unless Guerin somehow pulls Ehlers or Marner out of his hat.

 

[um]

Bruins will sign everybody in summer. They pissed with tons of cap space.

Back to back brutal off-seasons would be funny.

 

[The don godfather]

Back to back brutal off-seasons would be funny.

Elias lindholm has been red lot lately with pasta things are looking good there.

 

[Regal]

I still wouldn’t be surprised if Boes is hit with the start reality that he’s not worth what he thinks he is and ends up coming back for cheaper, but I wish him the best if he can get his bag

 

[Mrfenn92]

Why not trade him?

 

[HuGo Sham]

Boston or Pittsburgh imo - or Minny if he wants to stay west

Hughes feeling weight of Canucks' season: 'This year has been hard'

Being captain has made the 25-year-old feel acutely the sting of this National Hockey League season, which the Canucks began with Stanley Cup aspirations after Vancouver’s best season in a decade but will almost certainly end with the team missing the playoffs for the eighth time in 10 years.

Fresh off the printing press from yesterday, doesn't read exactly like a player who intends on walking from the organization, but good try.

As for the OP, I think he'll end up with a rebuilding type of team like what Toffoli did, or a Calgary

My guess is that all three want their contracts to ultimately end at the same time. Jack has the longest deal in place with 5 years after this one. I expect Quinn to extend with Vancouver for three more years to match that. My guess is Luke wants to also sign for five but NJ will compromise with him for 6. All the brothers can reassess what they want to down the line and see if they want to play together somewhere. The only one of the three that has publicly been open about it is Jack who has said something to the effect that it would be nice someday. Five years in pro sports is an eternity and if Jack keeps wrecking his shoulder they won't be such a hot commodity as a group by then.

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Enough with the drama and get it over with. Every year there’s rumors about this guy. Nobody cares.

 

[DemidovSaveUs]

That is fine

 

[um]

Elias lindholm has been red lot lately with pasta things are looking good there.

Bruins must be racking up lots of wins.

 

[WiLBoY]

Canucks went from one of the best Canadian teams last year to one of the worse. Forward group blew up, last in Canadian team in points.

What a mess

 

[Price is Wright]

If Marner walks in the off-season this is a worthy Plan B for Toronto. Definitely a large delta between the two players, but him and Matthews seem to get along and if the Leafs can for once sign someone at a team friendly price the extra cap space would go a long way.

Something tells me he wants to play for an American team though after all the years in Vancouver

I said it in the Marner thread but I definitely think Brock and Mitch trade places.

 

[Breakers]

He’s a great complimentary winger for somebody

But he can’t transition the puck to save his life

I’d rather spend money on ehlers despite his injury history

 

[Three On Zero]

I don't understand how anyone can believe losing a player for nothing is somehow better asset management even than getting a 2nd rounder, but here you are.

Also no one should believe we were only offered a 2nd rounder, even with our GM making such claims to save face, our owner clearly blocked the deal, he is clearly the problem.

FA has been pretty absent and not as involved since the JR/Allvin hirings, trying to blame all the team's issues on him is getting old.

 

[Coffee]

Why not trade him?

Trading a fan favourite during losing season? Probably a owner decision lol

 

[nickdawg95]

Im honestly shocked he turned down 8m, hes not an 8m player

don't think it's about the money. I think he sees the writing on the wall for that team and wants out

 

[landy]

Ill go MIN for too much money and it looks bad in 3 years.

Sorry I choose to live in reality, this keeps happening, with every management group, the only common denominator here is FA, but yah, sure, it's gotta be only management........
