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?

[Three On Zero]

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........

Pittsburgh fans warned Vancouver what Rutherford was like and how he operated. This is exactly what they warned about.

Continuing to blame FA is like the meme of putting a stick in your tire and falling over

 

[DesertPenguin]

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

Maybe to Pitt if we trade Rakell. Get assets for Rakell, replace with Boeser for a little more money. Seems like a good way to trade cap for assets, and still compete in the Crosby era.

 

[Pure Slaughter Value]

Isles 8/80

Back to 20 goal scorer

Sweet, sweet Lou.

 

[tantalum]

My prediction is he still ends up in Vancouver for the same or less than he was offered before.

 

[Eegs]

Is Montréal a possibility?

I don't see him as a need or a fit tbh. We need a top 6 C, and Brock is slow af. Doesn't suit the uptempo style we like to run.

 

[Hockeyfan200]

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

the wild aren't interested. it's been made clear by wild beat writer. they are selling all out for Brock nelson and Nelson is expected to be a big signing

I envy the trust you put in Russo that Guerin is sitting down with him and letting go of all his plans.

Why are you picking favourites ? They are both from Minnesota

Because we need C and even though winger is important also. we have gone what has felt like 100 years without a C and we need one

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Sure glad we are letting him walk for free.

 

[Coffee]

Sure glad we are letting him walk for free.

Only if he goes to Minnesota. If not then no, I’m not happy we let him walk for fre

Yikes. I like Brock fine but he turned down $7.5M from NYI, so $8+ for him incoming? Woof

Yah, they have that rep and they are to blame as well, but to think they aren't being heavily influenced by the guy that owns the team is laughably delusional, and when the same issues (again) keep popping up, well.......

Same with Boeser, if either of them come here (Minnesota), they better lean into the hometown discount thing.

 

[Quinton Byfield]

No mention of LA as a landing spot? It’s been rumoured that they’ve coveted him for awhile now, and they have a big hole on PP, to where Laferriere and now Kuzmenko has been on PP1 all year, bumping Byfield to PP2.

blows my mind people try to defend tortellini

dude is a cancer

 

[Fatass]

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

If Marner doesn’t sign in TO, then he’s heading south of the border. Boeser is heading south of the border too. Maybe he takes less to go home?

 

[FlappyGiraffe]

chicago should give him 7.5x7, they need good forwards to support bedard

 

[Garbageyuk]

Wtf exactly is the problem in VAN? Why do they always have these type of problems with their star players? It can’t be management either because this kind of shit goes back to the 90s (Messier, Bure, Linden, Ohlund) with them, if not further.

They’ve had problems lately with Boeser, TJ Miller, Elias Pettersson, Bo Horvat. In the 00s, they had problems with Naslund, Morrison, Luongo. In the 10s, they had problems with Hodgson, Schneider, Kessler, Ehrhoff.

What is it about the Canucks/Vancouver that has caused all this kind of shit with high-profile players?

 

[MoneyManny]

Is Montréal a possibility?

Don't think we need more pure shooters in the lineup unless they ditch Laine and i'd prefer him over Boeser.

 

[MoneyManny]

ill take that, over being known as a soft management team that will give in to low ball offers and can be bullied into taking less than market value.

You take a 2nd round pick for Boeser you open yourself up to crappy offers in the future.

Stand firm, get what you want and feel you deserve, if you dont, move on and dont lose sleep over a missed a 2nd round pick which was reportedly the best offer for Boeser.

No picks is the lowest low ball offer you'll ever get, fyi.

 

[BLNY]

Is Montréal a possibility?

Not likely.

 

[centipede2233]

Will probably take 7 yrs 8-8.5 mil per. is Detroit willing to sign that for Boeser?


I definitely think Minny is on the top of his preferred destinations. Can also see a team like Tampa or Fla

What cap room does Tampa and Florida have…

Not too sure that’s enough for Boeser to play on a bad team. A good team is likely to offer him 7 x 7. Hawks might need to really overpay to attract a top UFA. 8.5 x 7
