Penguins Entertain Trade Talks for Star Canucks Winger
It's been speculated that Brock Boeser has been shopped around the league for a while now after Rick Tocchet demoted Andrei Kuzmenko and promoted Boeser to give him more ice-time and offensive opportunities.
With Frank Seravalli commenting on the matter, it looks like it may be a reality as Boeser is currently being entertained.
It's apparent that Ron Hextall is going to be a buyer at the trade deadline as they've asked in Brock Boeser. Brock who had some major problems in his personal life recently, would benefit from a fresh start. Patrik Allvin and The Vancouver Canucks have given thought to retaining $1 Million of Boeser's salary in a trade for the young winger.
Boeser, who recently lost his father has been seen as struggling lately and with the new regime change in Vancouver recently, Bo Horvat was first to be moved and now it's likely that Boeser may be next.
Boeser hasn't returned to his 2018-2019, 50-point year form, and maybe with a new situation, he can rejuvenate himself and help the Penguins along the way.
