Boeser’s agent discussed trade, sitting out the season prior to signing team-friendly deal

When a contract discussion involves striking a deal worth millions, it’s easy to assume that things can get heated.

In Brock Boeser’s case however, his agent actually shed some insight on how tense the negotiations actually were.

Boeser’s agent Ben Hankinson was on TSN 1040 Tuesday morning following his client signing a three-year, $17.625 million deal with the Canucks. The deal carries an average annual cap hit of $5.875 million.

He notes that while he’s happy with Boeser’s final deal, that there were some heated moments prior to putting pen to paper.
