Brock Boeser Next Team Odds: Potential Destinations For Veteran Canucks Free Agent

With that in mind, BetCanada.com broke down some hypothetical odds on potential landing spots for the 2017-18 NHL All-Rookie team member, with his hometown Minnesota Wild being the leading candidate right now.

Brock Boeser Not Far From Career Year
Boeser had his best statistical season in 2023-24. He had career highs in goals (40), points (73) and shooting percentage (19.6%). He was named an All-Star for the second time in his career and helped Vancouver reach the second round of the playoffs for the first time since 2020.
But his future with the franchise is in question because the three-year, nearly $20 million contract he signed before the 2022-23 season is coming to an end. Boeser made $6.65 million USD this season.
According to Spotrac.com, the Canucks already have about $67.5 million of a projected $95.5 million salary cap committed to players with existing contracts for next season. That figure includes $11.6 million for center Elias Pettersson and $7.85 million for captain Quinn Hughes, the reigning Norris Trophy winner as the league’s best defenseman.

Where Will Boeser Be Playing?
Once the NHL free agency window opens on July 1, you can expect a number of teams to beat down the door to get Boeser on their roster, who earned just over $6.6 million in his final year with the Canucks in 2024-25.
Given how Boeser hails from Burnsville, Minnesota, it’s only fair to wonder if the Wild will make a deal with the 28-year-old, though the Western Conference stalwarts could be hamstrung by having negative salary cap space available right now, with Spotrac.com estimating the club to have $15.786 million to spend on free agents, ranking 18th leaguewide.
Other teams that could make some noise in landing the veteran forward include the Boston Bruins, who check in at +650 alongside the Los Angeles Kings, with the latter holding $23.095 million in cap space while the latter has $21.710 million to throw around, according to Spotrac.com.
Other potential suitors in the race for Boeser’s services include the Detroit Red Wings, at +800, the Carolina Hurricanes and New York Rangers at +1000 apiece and the two-way tie between the Ottawa Senators and Chicago Blackhawks, who are co-listed at +1250 apiece to land Boeser this offseason.
Throw in the Great White North’s premier NHL club in the Toronto Maple Leafs at +1750 and you have the odds board for Boeser covered, though we’re going with the lure of playing for his home state team as being the eventual difference-maker in the race to land the veteran of 554 games in the coming days and weeks.
