    Brock Boeser is an absolute beauty and a class act. As a Leafs fan I envy the fact you guys get to have him in Vancouver. Sign this man long term, get it done. His future is stupid bright.

      @Godsgift19912003 Před 5 lety +4

      @mojo Respect man, when I look at Vancouver they remind me a lot of my Leafs a couple years ago. Showing all kinds of signs of being a DANGEROUS team that will have a LONG window, you guys are doing it right. Rebuilds take time, but you guys have everything to be excited about. With that young, skilled core, Vancouver will attract big name free agents no doubt. Next to the Leafs (obviously lol) I would love to see Vancouver get to the promise land, how epic would it be to see Toronto vs. Vancouver for the cup? Either way seeing it come home??? UNREAL!!! Best of luck to you guys, enjoy the rest of the season bud, cheers!

      @Daniel Lee wasn't even talking about just raw talent. I was more referring to how classy he is off the ice. I love my Leafs, but let's be real. The first thing that comes to mind with players like Matthews or Nylander is not humility. Brock somehow manages being as skillful as those players, while remaining so humble and down to earth. Speaks volumes about his as a man.

    It's great to see this kid be so humble. He gets it and is a credit to his parents teaching him how to be honest and not take things for granted. Having a family member with social ailment and a Father who is dealing with his known health issues. I'm sure Brock understand that it was about him and that others in the family needs came first. Credit goes his Mother who took on being able to juggle her work load and make it possible for his NHL dreams come true

North Dakota hockey has an amazing amount of players in the NHL, but Brock may be the best one yet.

      I can say the same about Dominik Simon (Penguins) - met the guy at a rec game in Prague. He was playing for the AHL affiliate at the time (summer 2017) and he was humble, down-to-earth. Sat next to him in the locker room and was just chit-chatting.
      No show-boating during the game either - tried to set all of us up.

    Great video! Always nice to see these kids stay grounded even after all of the success in such a short amount of time. The Canucks have a good one in Boeser....

    An amazing player but a much better man - an incredibly humble guy - honored to know him

    The greatest Sioux player of all time. An amazing hockey player, but an even better person. #SiouxNation

    Good kid. Passionate. He's got the kind of character you can build a franchise around, like a steve yzerman, or scott Neidermeir.

    Nice to win Stanley Cups but Vancouver has a legacy of having the classiest players to play in the NHL. Brock is already carrying the torch.

      That's what a fan would say after seeing their team lose in three modern age Stanley Cup finals.

    Atta boy Brock. I was born and raised in BC and I remember asking for a CCM Vector for my first good stick. The ones before that I would just get from Canadian Tire for about $20. Brock Bo and Petey are definitely a breath of fresh air on the Canucks.

    Not just a great hockey player but a good person overall and that is what matters most

    Elias + Brock = Amazing. Vancouver are so fortunate to have such skilled, down to earth guys.

    Love that the Canucks have some great skill and character up front in all three of Horvat, Boeser and Pettersson. Not a bad start to the post-Sedin era
