The Vancouver Canucks will need Brock Boeser to step up his offensive production next season after several key free agent departures this offseason.

After Tyler Toffoli signed with the Montreal Canadiens in free agency, the Vancouver Canucks have a major gap to fill in their top-six.

While Jake Virtanen looks like management’s choice to fill Toffoli’s place in the lineup, it is Brock Boeser who will not only more than make up for the Canucks’ loss of offence but also develop into a bonafide top-line winger in the NHL.
