Brock Boeser‘s first two years with the Vancouver Canucks were nothing short of impressive, and he was a symbol of what was to come.
But once the team actually started to win and become relevant again, Boeser faded into the background. His 16 goals and 45 points in 57 games played were the worst totals of his career despite getting top-line minutes and being on the first power play unit.
There is a lot to point at to explain Boeser’s struggles this year, including a rib injury, bad puck luck, and being on a new contract.
