Brock Boeser is back with the Vancouver Canucks after a tumultuous negotiation period that saw his future with the team in question. Initially viewed as unlikely to re-sign, the Canucks shifted their focus to acquiring Christian Dvorak from Montreal but ultimately lost out to the Philadelphia Flyers. With limited options left, Vancouver pivoted back to Boeser, who accepted a seven-year contract worth $50.75 million.

Boeser expressed surprise at the outcome, reflecting on the challenging negotiations. He voiced confidence in the team's direction under head coach Adam Foote and feels optimistic about the upcoming season. The Canucks are now looking to solidify their center position, possibly through future trades.
