In a move signaling both stability and ambition, the Vancouver Canucks have signed forward Brock Boeser to a five-year contract extension, ensuring one of their most consistent scoring threats remains in the fold through the prime of his career.
Boeser, 28, has long been a pillar of the Canucks’ offense. Known for his lethal shot and calm presence on the ice, he emerged this past season not only as a top-line finisher but also as a more complete player—proving he can be counted on beyond the scoresheet. His new deal, reported to carry an average annual value of $6.5 million, reflects the organization’s confidence in his growth and leadership potential.
“This is where I want to be,” Boeser said in a press conference following the announcement. “I’ve believed in the direction this team is heading for a while now, and I’m proud to be a part of what we’re building in Vancouver.”
Boeser’s resurgence over the past year—following a turbulent stretch that included injury setbacks and personal challenges—has been a key storyline for the Canucks. His chemistry with linemates Elias Pettersson and J.T. Miller helped power Vancouver into the postseason, where his timely goals and poise under pressure turned heads.
Canucks General Manager Patrik Allvin emphasized Boeser’s role not just as a scorer, but as a culture-setter. “Brock has matured into a leader in our room,” Allvin said. “He’s committed to the game, to this city, and to winning. Locking him in long term was a priority.”
With Boeser now under contract through 2030, the Canucks solidify a core that increasingly looks capable of competing deep into the playoffs. The extension also signals a clear intention: Vancouver is ready to move past rebuilding narratives and focus on contention.
For Boeser, the new deal is more than a contract—it’s a commitment to the city and fanbase that stood by him during highs and lows. For the Canucks, it’s a bet on both talent and character.
