Brock Boeser signed a seven-year, $50.25 million contract to remain with the Vancouver Canucks on Tuesday. It has an average annual value of $7.25 million.
The 28-year-old forward, who became an unrestricted free agent, had 50 points (25 goals, 25 assists) in 75 games for the Canucks last season.
Boeser, who will enter his 10th season with Vancouver and is its longest-tenured player, had said he didn’t expect to return.
“Honestly, it’s unlikely at this point,” he told Sportsnet in a story posted April 10. “It (stinks). It’s unfortunate. I’m just trying to play good hockey and then I’ll worry about everything after that. We all know it’s been a roller coaster of a year. There’s been a lot of different things.”
Boeser had 40 goals and a career-high 73 points in 2023-24.
Selected by Vancouver in the first round (No. 23) at the 2015 NHL Draft, Boeser has 434 points (204 goals, 230 assists) in 554 regular-season games and 23 points (11 goals, 12 assists) in 29 Stanley Cup Playoff games.
