Brock Boeser - Ready for traning camp Boeser (illness) has resumed training and will be available for the start of training camp, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports Monday.
Impact Boeser missed Game 7 against the Oilers on May 20 due to his blood clotting issue but appears to have fully recovered. During the regular season, the 27-year-old saw action in 81 games in which he set new career highs in goals (40), points (73) and power-play points (25). Boeser should hold on to his first-line role ahead of the recently signed Jake DeBrusk -- though falling to the second line and playing with Elias Pettersson wouldn't exactly be a demotion.

Vincent Desharnais - Signs two-year contract Desharnais signed a two-year, $4 million contract with Vancouver on Monday.
Impact Desharnais compiled one goal, 10 assists, 41 shots on net, 122 blocked shots and 134 hits in 78 regular-season contests with Edmonton in 2023-24. He will serve as a depth defender for the Canucks.

Nathan Smith - Agrees to one-year deal Smith penned a one-year, two-way contract with the Canucks on Monday.
Impact Smith has just 14 games of NHL experience, all with the Coyotes, but has primarily served as a minor-league option. Selected by the Jets in the third round of the 2018 NHL Draft, the 25-year-old center will be hard-pressed to break into the Opening Night roster for Vancouver. Instead, expect Smith to spend the bulk of the 2024-25 season with AHL Abbotsford.

Jiri Patera - Signs two-year contract Patera agreed to terms on a two-year, two-way deal with Vancouver on Monday.
Impact Patera may get a look ahead of the 2024-25 campaign but would have to put together a fantastic training camp to unseat Arturs Silovs for the No. 2 job in Vancouver. Instead, Patera figures to continue developing in the minors with AHL Abbotsford.

Derek Forbort - Pens one-year deal Forbort inked a one-year, $1.5 million contract with Vancouver on Monday.
Impact Forbort played in just 35 regular-season games for the Bruins last season in which he tallied zero goals, four assists and 22 shots. The blueliner was more productive in terms of defensive stats, putting up 65 blocks and 68 hits. Still, given his lack of offensive upside, Forbort likely won't be on the radar of too many fantasy players heading into the 2024-25 campaign.

Kiefer Sherwood - Heading north Sherwood signed a two-year, $3 million contract with the Canucks on Monday.
Impact Sherwood had 10 goals, 27 points, 41 PIM and 234 hits in 68 regular-season appearances with the Predators in 2023-24. He's slated to serve in a bottom-six role with Vancouver.
JULY 1 • ROTOWIRE
Danton Heinen - Inks two-year contract Heinen signed a two-year, $4.5 million contract with Vancouver on Monday.
Impact Heinen produced 17 goals, 36 points, 119 shots on net and 83 hits in 74 regular-season contests for Boston in 2023-24. The 28-year-old forward will likely occupy a bottom-six role with the Canucks in 2024-25.
JULY 1 • ROTOWIRE
Jake DeBrusk - Earns seven-year deal DeBrusk penned a seven-year, $38.5 million contract with Vancouver on Monday.
Impact DeBrusk appears to be the consolation prize for the Canucks after they missed out on Jake Guentzel, who the team was heavily linked to before he signed with Tampa Bay. For his part, the 27-year-old DeBrusk came just one goal shy of reaching the 20-goal threshold for the third straight season. Still, the Edmonton native should be in line for a top-six role that will see him playing with either Elias Pettersson or J.T. Miller, either of which should help bolster DeBrusk's offensive output.
