TSN's Frankie Corrado recently revealed that Brock Boeser's future with the Vancouver Canucks depends on his upcoming season.

27-year-old forward Brock Boeser, has become one of the biggest stars of the Vancouver Canucks. Following a 40-goal regular season, he rose far above expectations and pulled in the franchise's 6th-ever postseason hat trick in Game 4 against the Nashville Predators.

"Brock Boeser

6th postseason hat trick in #Canucks history

3rd game-tying goal in franchise playoff history with less than :10 to go in the 3rd period"

However, Boeser's playoffs were cut short due to a health emergency. After developing a blood clot in his leg, he had to maintain a strict medical schedule and remain off the ice.

"Sounds like #Canucks Brock Boeser's blood clot developed in his leg, something team medical staff found after Game 6.

He has been placed on blood thinning medication and is not expected to be available to play again this season.

Brutal break for #Canucks' leading goal scorer."

Despite a solid run until his medical mishap, Vancouver general manager Patrik Allvin was not impressed enough with Boeser to guarantee a longer stay. Perforce, the Canucks decided to wait to see how he performs in the upcoming season to extend his current contract.

"According to Frankie Corrado of TSN, Brock Boeser's contract extension may not be a priority for them this summer, as they want to wait and see how he performs during the 2024-25 season."

With another year on his contract with Vancouver, hopefully, Brock Boeser can prove that his medical emergency was just a one-time thing. If not, this could be his last season as a member of the Canucks.
