TSN: Canucks' rebuild timeline keeps Brock Boeser trade in play

A no-movement clause gives the winger control.

What happened: TSN argues the 29-year-old's age curve may make him more valuable as an asset for Vancouver's rebuild. His seven-year contract runs through 2031-32 with a $7.25 million annual cap hit.

Why it matters: The possibility fits Vancouver's wider review of Brock Boeser, Elias Pettersson and Jake DeBrusk. Boeser's term and trade protection could narrow the market while increasing the importance of the return.

By the numbers: Boeser recorded 22 goals and 26 assists for 48 points in 75 games during the 2025-26 season. He scored six power-play goals and converted 13.3% of his 166 shots.

What to watch: Any talks hinge on whether Boeser is willing to waive his no-movement clause and what return Vancouver can command.
