Vancouver Canucks winger Brock Boeser has addressed the trade rumors surrounding him ahead of the NHL's March 6 deadline. Boeser, who has 12 goals and 14 assists in 51 games this season, said "It's not a trade deadline if my name's not in there." The Canucks have already traded away star defenseman Quinn Hughes, signaling a potential roster sell-off.
Why it matters
Boeser is one of the Canucks' top players, so his potential trade would be a significant move for the franchise. As the team looks to rebuild, Boeser's future in Vancouver remains uncertain despite his long tenure with the club.
The details
Boeser, 29, is not having his best statistical season with 12 goals and 14 assists in 51 games. However, he has proven production over his 605-game NHL career, with 216 goals and 244 assists. A change of scenery could benefit the winger, and a contending team may be willing to take a chance on him if the price is right.
- The NHL trade deadline is on March 6, 2026.
