Brock Boeser, a 27-year-old winger for the Vancouver Canucks, is under scrutiny as the trade deadline approaches due to his disappointing performance this season and impending unrestricted free agency.

This season, Boeser has recorded 15 goals and 14 assists in 39 games, but his recent form has been concerning, with only 1 goal and 3 assists in his last 10 games.

His future in Vancouver is uncertain, particularly after he achieved a career-high of 40 goals last season, amid the Canucks' struggles and potential roster changes.

As the March 7 trade deadline nears, several NHL teams are emerging as potential trade destinations for Boeser, each seeking a goal scorer to enhance their lineup.

The Minnesota Wild are seen as a top destination, looking to boost their scoring; Boeser, being a Minnesota native, could provide the offensive spark they need.

The Detroit Red Wings, one of the league's hottest teams, are also in need of offensive help, ranking 23rd in goals scored, and Boeser could significantly enhance their scoring alongside key players.

The Tampa Bay Lightning, already strong offensively, could further solidify their lineup by adding Boeser, making them an even more formidable contender in the Eastern Conference.

The New York Rangers may consider acquiring Boeser if they fail to secure J.T. Miller, as they require additional wing depth to improve their lackluster offense.

The Pittsburgh Penguins might also be interested in Boeser to bolster their offensive capabilities, particularly given the connection with former Canucks GM Jim Rutherford now with the Penguins.

Additionally, the Boston Bruins are another candidate, as they are struggling offensively and need more scorers; Boeser would rank among their top players in goals and points, adding depth to their lineup.
