With Boeser absent, Canucks need Eriksson to play up to contract - Sportsnet.ca

. He knows he should have done better than he has on the West Coast and will work harder. He understands he has to compete for a lineup spot and earn a role this reason.

Like many teams with key, unsigned RFAs, the Canucks are unwilling to pay Boeser what he wants on a long-term contract, so the sides are trying to figure out what a bridge deal looks like. But barring a sudden surrender by Boeser or the Canucks, the 22-year-old Minnesotan will miss the start of training camp — something he probably can’t afford given his injury history and slow start a year ago.

Benning told Sportsnet in July — after winger Micheal Ferland was the last of four significant players added by the Canucks in trade or free agency — that the team has several scenarios to accommodate a new contract for Boeser. "It’s always fighting for the spots on the team. I think everyone coming in for this training camp is going to fight to earn a spot. It’s the same for me, the same for everyone. All you can do is give it your best and try to earn a spot and find a role on the team. Help the team to win — that’s all that matters."
