Adarsh Sant 1,958 Posted September 19 1 hour ago, Alflives said: The agent screwed Brock by turning down the 7x7 offered back in June. Long term deal with a guaranteed 49 million. Now Brock has a short term deal worth 17.5 million. Brock is a loyal guy, so he will not fire this agent. But he should. If Boeser continues playing like he has, he will get significantly more money in 3 years. Obviously he has to perform. But if he averages 30+ goals in the next 3 seasons he is gonna get paiiiiiiiiiid in 3 years. Look at Panarin for example. He won the Calder, signed a 2 year bridge, and then cashed in this year. Boeser is on track to do the same. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We all know Americans are arrogant douchebags who only care about themselves. You dont win a cup with American players. Second of all 5.8 mill for an injury prone second line winger who hasnt done anything and hasnt shown he will be any better? Hes no leader nor captain unlike guys like Eriksson for example. If I were the aquiline I'd be calling jim to the office and grilling him on his scouting. Let's see a player do something before he is given nearly 6 million. Someone is having fun with their ghost account. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think Rick unfairly gets lumped in with the Matt Sekeres', David Pratt's and JD Burke's of the world. He isn't right 100% of the time but in terms of local media, he's as reputable as it gets. Not that that's saying much, but I think he does a good job most of the time. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VIC_CITY 2,680 Posted September 19 16 hours ago, Alflives said: I think the agent is “covering his a$$. The Canucks leaked the 7x7 offer from back in June. The agent screwed up telling Brock to wait for more money. Brock’s contract is way less than the other guys from his draft who have scored less than him. How accurate is this information? 16 hours ago, Alflives said: The agent is the only one upset, because he’s embarrassed. He’s trying to squeeze too much out of the teams for the players he represents. He’s misread the market. You may be right here, I'm not sure. But Brock is sitting pretty in 2-3 years when the new TV deal kicks in and he signs for another 7-8 years after playing on Petey's wing. You wanna talk about agents misreading the market, how about Ben Hutton's agent? You know Benning (and maybe other GMs) offered Hutton more than a 1 year $1.5M contract in the 1st week of July. Now Hutton is playing for his NHL career this year. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gaudette Celly 26,891 Posted September 19 2 hours ago, EP Phone Home said: As I posted above his tweet with Brock’s quote. It’s hilarious looking at all these chicken littles of the media running around with their heads chopped off with their toxic takes. Glad you said this, so true. Considering the negativity of Canuck twitter, he got near-universally roasted on that one. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nuxfanabroad 13,229 Posted September 19 I imagine BB6 gets inked for 6 or 7 yrs, if the NHL Hindquarters didn't pull that Lu recapture-crap. Both sides realized they had to adjust, compromise, & took care of biz fairly promptly & amicably. So nice to have young stars a whole fanbase can be proud of..& to have them mentored(at first) by our classiest vets in team history, to boot. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ghostsof1915 25,694 Posted September 19 Age 22, and mature way beyond his years. I had no idea the series of issues Duke has. Fighter indeed. The Boeser's are good people. They raised their kids well, and they seem to have good heads on their shoulders. I wish nothing but health and happiness for that family. There are things that are bigger than the game. 1 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WeneedLumme 2,844 Posted September 19 15 hours ago, stawns said: Well at least one (or two) of Petey, Bo, Hughes, Podz, OJ or Boes will be gone in the next 4-5 years. Boes' is a leading candidate, imo. 4-5 years is a very long time. Like half of a typical NHL career. And half the names you listed haven't even proven that they are NHL players yet. Yes, no doubt there will be some turnover on the team in that time. But worrying about it at this point in time is ridiculous. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
