I heard Brackett was the one pushing for moving Boeser, that's why he ended up in the outside looking in. See, I can make stuff up too!

I wouldn't want him to play like Boeser, but he could certainly match his numbers while playing a more complete game with a far higher compete level. I feel the same about Jake. The first line scorer is debatable, the character I agree with. Edited July 13, 2020 by stawns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, he didn't say they were shopping him, nor do I believe they are at this point. Come draft day, I'll think otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devron Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 I feel like this thing is going to go on forever kind of like the Tanev rumours every year. Before you know it Brock is in his 30’s still in a Canucks uniform lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Athletes should know they will be subject to rumors like this, if it's a distraction then that is on the athlete. And it isn't hard to look at Benning saying one thing then doing the next. I believe Dhailwal reported about a Nucks player not getting a contract offer, Benning denied it, then weeks past and that player never got a contract. The name escapes me.

10pavelbure96 Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Sekeres is such a hack. Horrible timing to start a rumour. Brock should be focused on one thing only. 1040 is garbage for not firing him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it comes to your opinion on Benning.... Which you've been reinforcing at nauseam for a long time now.... your views on this topic 'escapes me'. I see your posts on many other subjects on cdc and find you have some very good well thought out measured responses but just like Suckass, you loose all your credibility due to your blind blatant hate for Benning.

If it happens, draft day would be the earliest point it would happen. However, it's going to happen at some point because they're not going to be able to keep Petey, Hughes and Boeser once Boeser has to be resigned. Unless you see them moving QH or Petey? The whipping boy comment is just silly. You can like a player and still understand how trading him is beneficial to the organization. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apollo Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 "I had a chat with Jim and he told me he hasn't discussed trading me with anyone. I felt like that was very unnecessary by the media, especially the timing of it." - Boeser The level of garbage our media spews out is disgusting tbh... The funny thing is all the sheep that picked up a false piece of fake news and started running with it... Just shows how fragile some of our fans are. Our captain comes out a few nights prior saying we're focused on a cup and lunatic fringe's come out here thinking you're trading Brock Boeser... the epitome of class, skill, honour... I could go on and on. Brock is way too respectful... these toxic reporters need to be muted. They make our fans panic and ruin the energy moving forward. We're going for a cup... and if you think Jim is talking trade?! smh... People who believe fake news and ring alarm bells ... don't be a sheep. This team is focused on winning.

He does however do a lot of the same things Jake does (minus the elite speed). Boeser is a 1st line, 1 shot scorer with high character. That's what. See this is where my issue with Boeser comes in. We haven’t really seen that 1 shot scoring ability the last two seasons. Whether it’s his wrist or back or goalies reading his release after seeing him a bit, we just haven’t seen that much the last two years. Certainly not with the same consistency we did in his rookie season. His goal totals have lessened each of the last two years while actually taking more shots in 2018-19 (as compared to his rookie year of 2017-18) and similar totals this season. His shooting percentage went down to 12 and 9% respectively the last two years. Much more “normal” numbers that aren’t typical of a 1 shot scorer/sniper type. Now this could very well be a result of his injuries but then that begs the question- will he ever get it back? To me, if he has another season of <25 goals and maybe another injury that has him out for 10-15+ games then I think his trade value takes a serious hit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
