The Canucks held onto Brock Boeser at the NHL trade deadilne but that does not mean they should re-sign him this offseason.

The Vancouver Canucks were unable to get a trade done on Friday involving forward Brock Boeser and now thanks to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman, we know why.

The NHL trade deadline has come and gone, and several bombs were dropped on the hockey world with big moves being made by teams. But for the second year in a row, the Vancouver Canucks were relatively quiet on trade deadline day and did not make any big moves other than trading Carson Soucy.

Is Wednesday the final time that Brock Boeser plays for the Canucks? Take a look at what he had to say about the possibility.

Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reported last night that the Vancouver Canucks were not willing to accept anything less than a first-round pick at the NHL Trade Deadline for forward Brock Boeser.

Brock Boeser is staying in Vancouver — at least until the end of the 2024-25 campaign.

The Vancouver Canucks have struggled with consistency in 2024-25, hardly resembling the team that won the Pacific Division crown last season and advanced to Game 7 of the Western Conference Semi-Finals.

According to Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman, the uncertainty involving the future of Boeser has led the Canucks to enter the market in search for forward reinforcements. “The Canucks have a situation where they're looking to add to their forward group, whether it's now or later,” Friedman said.

Sellers around the NHL from Philadelphia to San Jose, Mikko Rantanen and the defending Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers were winners at the trade deadline.
