Boudrias Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 My problem with Boeser is the scoring droughts that he gets into. His skating could be a tad faster as well. I do like the fact that he has been producing in front of the net. He is tradeable based on what comes back. Another issue will be his new contract. Even if he gives a home town discount he will want at least 5 years and likely some kind of NTC. Not to excited about another player with a NTC.

He's not a bad player, he's just not worth $7M+. $6M for a 25 to 30 goal guy (still with potential to be a 35 to 40 goal guy) would be excellent value. That's what we need to focus on... value for the dollar. You need guys to meet or exceed what they cost on the cap. again, that's $100k more than he's making now and about $300k less than he'd get via arbitration worst case scenario Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he's not scoring he seems to be a meh player at best; but all the metrics and his actual production seem to indicate even when he doesn't put goals in the net he is still an effective middle 6 player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Brock could probably accept that. Maybe even longer for term. He’s a good player, and reports are that he really wants to remain in Vancouver, which is great to hear.

That's additional value to his contract. It's really upto him. If he doesn't wanna re-sign for something like that, it'll probably be clear for JR/PA to move him this TDL.

KyGuy123 Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 Boeser should be in the bumper position on the PP, if anything he’s more of a distraction for coverage as he does have a great shot. That would allow Petey to go to the point or down low on the half boards instead of shoot or back to the point. I’d stick Horvat and Garland on the second unit with Podkolzin and have OEL fire pucks through traffic looking for a tip. Hoglander or Pearson could fight for that too PP spot left open.

Something I've never been able to understand is when we started to see what Petey could do, before he made the NHL, we all started talking about seeing Petey on right side and Brock on the left side both ripping one timers, yet we've never seen it. Ever. Hughes on the point feeding these two with Miller down low and Bo in the bumper would be lethal. It makes me sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Vintage Canuck- Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 He’s #6 on the board. Quote Scoop: Trade chatter surrounding Boeser has grown louder in the last number of days as the Canucks’ newly assembled regime settles in ahead of the deadline. With 10 goals in 21 games, no Canuck has benefitted more than Boeser from Bruce Boudreau being behind the bench in Vancouver. Keep in mind: Jim Rutherford has repeatedly stressed that creating salary cap flexibility is key. There are other roster players that can achieve space and freedom, but there is a sense the Canucks are not sold Boeser’s play will be commensurate with the large qualifying offer due to him this summer, which makes him a prime candidate to move. It’s entirely possible that J.T. Miller, who is much more of a driver than Boeser, remains in Vancouver and Boeser is on his way to a new team. Could New Jersey be a fit for Boeser?

Nicklas Bo Hunter Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Gotta make the cap work and Van need a RHD... I know most want Ty smith from NjD but hear me out. what if Jim takes a shot at getting Subban for a cheap deal in the offseason? gets an early head start and it makes the cap work for the specific player I would like. To Van: Pk Subban %50 retained Dawson Mercer Kevin Bahl To NJD: Brock Boeser B level Prospect 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep or trade, Brock is the guy they need to figure out first. He's the one with a contract coming due. If a trade is to happen, I'd put money down that it would be Boeser first. Miller can wait. Other teams know Miller is available, if they want him, they can come with their best offer. There's no need for JR/PA to making the phone calls right now.

Unless someone better than any of those come up as possible acquisition, I don’t see them going anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off_The_Schneid! Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Seems like NJ would be a good fit for Boeser especially with Rutherford stressing the fact that the team needs to get faster To NJ: Brock Boeser Jason Dickinson To Van: Pavel Zacha Kevin Bahl 1st Round pick 2nd round pick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead we got a stagnant PP that killed itself with Hughes & Miller playing cutesy catch until either time ran out or pressure turned the puck over.
