I think its a few things compounding for Brock.
1) his personal life, (duke being ill and passing) has been extremely difficult to process and work through. Not being able to see his father through pandemic. This clearly affected his on ice play.
2) injuries.
3) the canuck organization has been chaotic the last 3 years (or longer depending how you assess it).
i know they’re supposed to be professionals and expected to deal with it, but truth is, we’re all human. Brock is a very young man and the compilation of events in his life and young career, have definitely impacted his performance.
i think a new city and team will help him will help rejuvenate his career.
