As hockey fans we love seeing a lot of trades, especially when they involve your team. Sometimes they are a trade that will benefit you now, sometimes it's for something that will benefit you in the future, and then there are sometimes when the trade just makes you want to pull your hair out.
One team that has not lived up to expectations this season has been the Vancouver Canucks. After hiring Bruce Boudreau last year, they finished the season on a 100 point pace under his guidance, but this season has not gone as well. They started off very poorly, and while they have rebounded slightly as of late, one star player wants out of Vancouver.
Things have not gone the way Brock Boeser has wanted this year and it was the final straw for him the other night when the Canucks decided to make him a healthy scratch for the "hockey fights cancer" night. Many are probably aware that his father passed away not too long ago to cancer, so this night meant a lot to him. After an injury, he did end up playing and scoring a goal, but the team has given him permission to seek out a trade.
Boeser is only 25, has 16 points in 20 games this season and has scored 20+ 4 times in his career already, including a 29 goal season in only 62 games. He is currently on the first year of a new three-year deal that pays $6,650,000 AAV.
He is a great player who will benefit a team hugely, and it just so happens, the Canucks are willing to let him go at a low value:
