Not much to say. It's no surprise given the disease he was suffering from but it doesn't make it any easier on the friends and family. You could feel the pain within Brock during the year end press conference. Maybe it's better the Canucks weren't in the playoffs so he had the chance to spend the last few weeks with his father.

Very good point.  Couldn't imagine the pain if this happened in the middle of a playoff run.  Would be gut wrenching.  Silver lining to missing the playoffs this year.

What a moment that must have been for the Boeser family.

 

Sad day for the Canucks community, but nothing compared to the grief and sadness Brock and his family must be going through today.  Love of and for family is universal...feeling the sorrow for the Boeser family.  So sorry for the Boeser family's loss.

For sure. Brock, with having a traveling job,  so glad he could spend the last month together. Sad.

Brock is great young guy and has gone through a tough year.  At least his Dad got to see him play in the NHL and have a lot of early success. I am sure that meant a lot to both Brock and his Dad.
