Vancouver had a bit of a weird stigma back then, although I would trade 90s Vancouver for post-olympics Vancouver in a heartbeat. For a professional athlete (young and likely does a lot of outdoor activities) making a cool million it is a great city. For a chubby culture-vulture who hates rain I maybe didn't get enough out of the city to justify the high cost and limited job opportunities. Definitely things I love about it, but I wouldn't say Vancouver is for everyone. In the case of Boeser, I think he would love it. It is a bit ignorant to say Canada is the best country, and Vancouver is the best city. Anybody born and bred in Vancouver has that mentality cause of those livability rankings that fail to take cost of living and taxes into account. Vancouver is great for 1) people who love physical outdoor activities 2) rich people 3) people who hate cities but have to live in a city. Good chance a guy like Boeser is all three. You, sir, hit the nail on the head. Vancouver definitely isn't for everyone. However, for someone outdoorsy and with money to burn, I'm sure Boeser will like it just fine.

Consecutive 1sts Boeser and Matthews to walk onto the team next training camp, like Toews and Kane in 2007. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a snag by JB if he is able to translate this to the NHL, especially with a power forward frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boesser even goes to one knee on release, just like Bossie used to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIRTHYEAR 1997-02-25 BIRTHPLACE Burnsville, MN, USA AGE 18 NATION USA POSITION RW SHOOTS R HEIGHT 183 cm / 6'0" WEIGHT 87 kg / 192 lbs A dynamic offensive winger and natural goal scorer. Has great instincts and is able to quickly get into position for premium scoring chances; possesses an accurate release on his shot which he can get off in the blink of an eye. He always knows where his linemates are, and is a great passer; that being said, his individual puck possession play is incredible and sets him apart as an offensive player. He will need to work on defensive zone coverage and a slew of small details such as board battles, but Brock Boeser has a ton of elite-level scoring potential due to the way he can read, make, and finish plays. (Curtis Joe, EP 2014) Some scouts are seeing quite a bit of Patrick Sharp in Mr. Boeser. He skates well and has a complete set of goal-scorer's tools. Doesn't give up his own end, and transitions to offense in such a quick and concrete way that he can catch the opposition off-guard. [EliteProspects 2015] http://www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=248381 canucks could use a natural goal scorer! welcome Boeser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shiftynifty Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Would be interesting to see where Benning had him ranked in the draft. By repeatedly saying he "fell" to the Canucks implies he had him ranked before 23rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowardrobertford Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Now we need a passer with hockey IQ to maximize his scoring potential, Auston Matthews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
