Canadiens reportedly showing interest in a Canucks forward
The Vancouver Canucks will be one of the teams to keep an eye on leading up to the NHL's trade deadline at 3 p.m. ET on March 3rd. Two of their big name forwards, Brock Boeser and Bo Horvat, are expected to be available and both could fetch the Canucks a decent return.
Just under two weeks ago, it was revealed that Brock Boeser's agent was granted permission to speak with teams about a potential fit for his client and last week, mentioned that more than half-a-dozen teams had expressed interest.
One of the teams that is reportedly interested in the 25-year-old is the Montreal Canadiens, according to CHEK TV's Rick Dhaliwal.
Boeser, a native of Burnsville (Minnesota), has appeared in 22 games for the Canucks this season recording 16 points (four goals, 12 assists), ten penalty minutes and is a minus-14. He has two more seasons on his contract following the 2022-23 campaign at a cap hit of $6.67 million.
