Patrick Allvin (or esls ?) on Boeser from a Drancer interview yesterday

Brock is the top-line pending unrestricted free agent going into this season for your club. We know he’s made a home here and it’s clear from his ice time how highly the organization thinks of him. When a guy hits 40 goals and had never previously hit 30, how does that sort of explosion interact with how the club has to responsibly approach talks with that player?

Yeah, I think there are two sides to it. A player might be without an extension and might be hungry to prove that they deserve it. And with Brock, I’m happy that it looks like he’s going to be cleared here to attend training camp. He worked really hard this summer and it was a really unfortunate situation last year.

I was pleased, last year, with how he changed up his offseason training and it translated into a better year. Now our expectations are higher. I’m sure Brock’s expectations are higher, too.

So I want to see the consistency. I want to see the hunger — from every single player, including Brock — to come in here and keep raising the bar. And when the time is right, I feel that I have a good relationship with Brock and with his agent Ben Hankinson, so we’ll talk.

For now, his main focus is to come back here and play to the level that he showed last year. And even be more consistent.

I told him that he could’ve scored 50 goals, but I felt he took his foot off the gas when he scored 30 and we want to see him pushing through.

Glad to hear Dakota caught it early and hopefully he'll be back in the Canucks lineup soon - He's a key player for the Canucks.

Allvin added that Demko would speak to the media on Thursday to fully address his status moving forward.

"He wanted to get in front of you guys tomorrow and clear where he is," Allvin said when asked about Demko's timeline and status. "He's been making progress. He's been in, working extremely hard and he seems to be in a great mindset."

that kind of statement makes me think his injury is REALLY serious.

I guess I can lump you in with those who think Demko is announcing his retirement today :thumb:
