Duffett believes that Sherwood\u2019s goal-scoring pace will start to slow down, and that his currently high value is somewhat of an illusion that the Canucks are trying to cash in on.<\/p>\n<p class=\"nesn-in-content-ad__copy\">Story continues below advertisement<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf the Bruins are seriously considering trading a first-round pick for Sherwood, it could easily be a waste of draft capital once Sherwood\u2019s 27.9% shooting percentage starts to drop,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/causewaycrowd.com\/bruins-should-avoid-one-recent-trade-rumor-with-canucks?utm_source=bleacherreport&amp;utm_medium=referral\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Duffett wrote on Sunday<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Why do people like Kiefer Sherwood so much?
