Report: Conor Garland and Brock Boeser the \u2018most likely\u2019 of Canucks\u2019 veterans to be traded<\/p>\n

While the Vancouver Canucks<\/a> have expressed a willingness to engage in trade negotiations with a majority of their roster, some are emerging as more realistic trade candidates than others.In his most recent article, The Athletic\u2019s Thomas Drance<\/a> noted that while Vancouver has a group of veteran players, two forwards in particular stand out as the most realistic trade candidates ahead of the deadline.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor now, we know that the Canucks are \u2018listening.\u2019 And I can add that among this veteran group of eight players, I sense that Garland \u2014 whose no-move clause doesn\u2019t kick in until July 1 \u2014 and Boeser should be considered the most likely of Vancouver\u2019s veteran players who could realistically be moved before the deadline.\u201d<\/p>\n

Through the 50 games this season, Brock Boeser<\/a> has recorded 12 goals and 13 assists for 25 points. However, his track record speaks to higher peaks.<\/p>\n

In 2024\u201325, he posted 25 goals and 25 assists for 50 points in 75 games, sharing a tie for second in goals (Pius Suter) and points (with Conor Garland). The previous season, Boeser had a career year, hitting the 40-goal mark for the first time and finishing with 73 points. His 216 goals and 459 points in 604 games \u2013 all in a Canucks uniform \u2013 have him 10th all-time in franchise scoring.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Conor Garland, 29, recently got off the schneid, recording his first point since December 27 in the club\u2019s 6\u20132 loss to the Utah Mammoth. In 2024\u201325, Garland tallied 50 points (19 goals, 31 assists) in 81 games, matching Boeser\u2019s output and ranking among Vancouver\u2019s top forward scorers that season. Across his NHL career, split between the Canucks and Arizona Coyotes, Garland has produced 315 points in 530 games and has consistently hovered around a 50-point pace when healthy.<\/p>\n

Contract situations further differentiate the two. Garland\u2019s no-move clause from the contract extension he signed with the club does not activate until July 1 of this year, allowing the Canucks full flexibility to move him anywhere before his clause kicks in. Meanwhile, Boeser is locked into a seven-year extension with a $7.25-million average annual value signed last summer, which gives the power to the player in terms of destination.<\/p>\n

Now that the NHL Olympic roster freeze is in full effect, the Canucks will have a brief 12-day period to move one of these players, or others, before the March 6 NHL Trade Deadline.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Report: Conor Garland and Brock Boeser the \u2018most likely\u2019 of Canucks\u2019 veterans to be traded While the Vancouver…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":455494,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[433],"tags":[49,48,448,82],"class_list":["post-455493","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nhl","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-nhl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/455493","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=455493"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/455493\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/455494"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=455493"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=455493"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=455493"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
