Boeser Inks Seven-Year Extension With Canucks

Brock Boeser has signed a seven-year contract worth $50.75 million ($7.25 million AAV) to stay with the Vancouver Canucks, despite speculation he would leave in free agency. The 2015 first-round pick has played his entire nine-season NHL career with Vancouver, tallying 204 goals and 434 points in 554 games. Boeser was named All-Star Game MVP as a rookie and is now Vancouver's longest-tenured player. After a career-high 40-goal, 73-point All-Star season in 2023-24, he registered 25 goals and 50 points last season but remained a key offensive contributor and locker room leader. The Canucks missed the playoffs amid internal changes, but Boeser's new deal is viewed as a vote of confidence for both sides. Vancouver hopes that Boeser, a top-six scoring threat and power-play presence, will help drive a return to playoff contention.
