Hyman put Edmonton ahead 1-0 at 5:52 of the first period, taking a long lead pass from Draisaitl up the left boards at the blue line, cutting across at the dot while keeping Hronek on his back and scoring glove side on Demko.

Boeser scored a goal on three shots, dished an assist, went plus-2 and added three hits in Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Oilers.

Zach Hyman had two goals and an assist, Leon Draisaitl had a goal and two assists and the Edmonton Oilers beat the Vancouver Canucks 6-2.

Here are the predicted contract values for Brock Boeser and the other Vancouver Canucks free agents this summer.

If the Canucks and Boeser can’t come to an agreement before the summer, they risk losing him for nothing. That’s why he’s a candidate to be traded if there’s no new deal before the March 7 trade deadline. Canucks general manager Patrik Allvin has admitted as much in past interviews.

Boeser, a pending unrestricted free agent, is coming off a career year with 40 goals and a solid postseason in 2024. While he remains on pace for 30 goals (he has scored 15 in 38 games this season), his consistent scoring ability has positioned him for a lucrative long-term contract.

The Canucks will look for a bounce-back effort on Saturday against the Capitals. This will be the final of two meetings between Vancouver and Washington, with the Capitals picking up an overtime win earlier this month. Game time is set for 7:00 pm PT at Rogers Arena.

Boeser, who is in the final season of a three-year, $19.95 million contract carrying a $6.65 million cap hit, has tallied 15 goals and 12 assists for 27 points in 37 games. While Boeser's numbers are respectable, his production is down compared to last season’s 40-goal, 73-point campaign.

The Vancouver Canucks have an important decision to make with forward Brock Boeser. Boeser, 27, is a pending unrestricted free agent, and with the Canucks battling for a playoff spot in the Western Conference,

Boeser provided an assist and fired eight shots on goal in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Sabres.

Zach Hyman scored two goals and had an assist and Leon Draisaitl had a goal and two assists as the Edmonton Oilers rolled over the visiting Vancouver Canucks 6-2 on Thursday.

Canucks fans are a little spoiled as they get to watch Hughes on a nightly basis. He pulls off moves that few players in the world can do while making it look easy. While the moves look spectacular from a distance, they are also stunning from ice level, according to Boeser.
