As the end of the regular season approaches and teams gear up for the Stanley Cup Playoffs, it&#8217;s worth keeping an eye on some players who might become available this summer.

Daily Faceoff insider Frank Seravalli <a href="https://www.dailyfaceoff.com/news/top-50-free-agents-board-nhl-2025-leafs-mitch-marner-14-million">released his top-50 unrestricted free agents</a> on Thursday, featuring big names who might test the waters come July 1, like <a href="https://theleafsnation.com/">Toronto Maple Leafs</a> forwards Mitch Marner and John Tavares.
A couple of <a href="https://canucksarmy.com/combinations">familiar names are on that list</a>, including Canucks winger Brock Boeser.
According to Seravalli, Boeser is the second-best pending free agent behind Marner. Even though he&#8217;s having a down year compared to his career-best 2023-24 season – which saw him score 73 points in 81 games – Boeser is still a viable scoring threat. Despite all of the drama that has happened around the team this season, Boeser has managed to score 24 goals and 22 assists for 46 points, currently <a href="https://canucksarmy.com/stats">tied for the team lead</a> in goals with Jake DeBrusk, sitting second in overall scoring behind captain Quinn Hughes.
Boeser&#8217;s name was in trade conversations prior to the trade deadline, but Canucks general manager <a href="https://canucksarmy.com/news/what-happened-vancouver-canucks-carolina-hurricanes-brock-boeser-deadline-day">Patrik Allvin stated that the offers</a> for the longtime Canuck weren&#8217;t enough to close a deal.
Boeser is in the final season of the three-year contract he signed in July 2022, with a cap hit of $6.65 million, the second-highest-paid forward on the roster behind Elias Pettersson. According to Seravalli and <a class="text-secondary underline underline-offset-2" href="https://x.com/AFPAnalytics" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">AFP Analytics</a>, the 28-year-old&#8217;s next contract could see him have an AAV of $9.1 million over seven years.
The other Canuck to crack the top 50 is forward Pius Suter. Listed at 25 on Seravalli&#8217;s list, the Swiss centreman has been a capable scoring option for Vancouver this season and just had a four-game point streak snapped on Wednesday night in <a href="https://canucksarmy.com/news/statsies-thatcher-demko-worst-start-while-comes-vancouver-canucks-loss-seattle-kraken">Vancouver&#8217;s loss to the Seattle Kraken</a>. Suter amassed two goals and eight points over his little run.
Suter joined the Canucks on a two-year deal in August 2023, carrying a cap hit of $1.6 million. After notching 29 points last year, the 28-year-old has set career highs in goals (22) and points (42) in 2024-25, placing him sixth on the team in scoring.
According to AFP, Suter could see a big payday if he hits the market, with his projected contract set to be a four-year deal around $3.9 million per year.
Of course, none of these projected contracts could come to fruition if Boeser and Suter sign extensions prior to free agency opening up.
The Canucks (34-28-13) are fifth in the Pacific Division, eight points <a href="https://canucksarmy.com/schedule">back of the last Wild Card spot</a> in the Western Conference with seven games left in the regular season.

As the end of the regular season approaches and teams gear up for the Stanley Cup Playoffs, it's worth keeping an eye on some players who might become available this summer.
