The Canucks are approaching a crossroads with pending UFA star Brock Boeser. What would be the pros and cons of Vancouver making him a trade asset?

Outside of the rampant speculation and drama surrounding the Vancouver Canucks this season, Brock Boeser’s impending unrestricted free agency would otherwise make for a lot of headlines in British Columbia.

Happy 2025, friends! We’re finally past the 41-game mark in the NHL and entering the silly season when it comes to trades, rumours, and everything else going on.

All the attention ahead of the trade deadline in Vancouver is on J.T. Miller and Elias Pettersson, but now, it appears that Brock Boeser may be on the way out too. The past few weeks in Vancouver ...

Boeser, who is in the final season of a three-year, $19.95 million contract carrying a $6.65 cap hit, has tallied 15 goals and 12 assists for 27 points in 37 games. While Boeser's numbers are respectable, his production is down compared to last season’s 40-goal, 73-point campaign.

The intrigue about Canucks centers J.T. Miller and Elias Pettersson continues, while the Sabres' Dylan Cozens and Islanders' Brock Nelson remain in the rumor mill.

Everyone is talking about JT Miller and Elias Pettersson but the Islanders target Brock Boeser makes all the sense in the world.

The Vancouver Canucks have fallen from the penthouse they lived in last season, but they shouldn't look at firing Tocchet to get back there.

In a new NHL Trade Talk weekend rumors report, we’re looking at the Vancouver Canucks and a few players who have been linked to trades this week. We’re also looking more closely at what the Edmonton Oilers intend to do after adding John Klingberg in free agency.

The buzz: You may have heard Saturday is Hockey Day in Canada. The Canucks versus Oilers’ game will be the nightcap for a full day of hockey. In another year, the celebration of the world’s fastest game would probably have more buzz to it, but with the Canucks in turmoil, all eyes are on what management’s next move will be.

Since the Edmonton Oilers and the Vancouver Canucks met in the postseason last spring, they have been heading in the opposite direction. The Oilers eliminated the Canucks in the second round of the 2024 playoffs before coming within a whisker of claiming the Stanley Cup title.
