The Canucks have signed Brock Boeser to a three-year, $19.95 million contract extension.
Boeser was set to become an RFA after his three-year, $17.625M deal expired. His new-deal carries a $6.65M AAV cap-hit and carries him through the 2025 season. Boeser is coming off of his fourth 20-plus goal season and has at least 45 points in five straight seasons. His biggest issue has been health, missing 15 percent of the games since 2018.
The Canucks have signed John Stevens to a one-year, two-way contract extension.
The Canucks have signed Guillaume Brisebois to a one-year, two-way contract extension.

Kane has been suspended for Game 4 for boarding Nazem Kadri in Game 3.
The hit knocked Kadri out for at least the remainder of the series. Kane will miss Game 4, where the Oilers need a win to keep their season alive. Zach Hyman will likely skate with Connor McDavid with Kane unavailable.

Lankinen will start Wednesday vs. the Golden Knights.
Chytil (undisclosed) is on the ice for warmups and is expected to play on Tuesday.
Chytil (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision on Tuesday.
Chytil was hurt last Thursday against the Islanders and missed Saturday's game in Boston. However, he was on the ice for Monday's practice and will be a game-time decision on Tuesday, so there's a good chance he's back in the lineup vs. the Hurricanes.
The Golden Knights recalled Jiri Patera from Henderson (AHL).
Patera was a sixth-round pick in 2017 and will serve as Logan Thompson's backup with Robin Lehner out for the final week of the season. Patera has gone 9-11-1 with a 2.89 GAA and .903 SV% in 21 games with Henderson this season.
