Vancouver Canucks rookie forward Brock Boeser will make his season debut Thursday against the Winnipeg Jets, head coach Travis Green confirmed.
Boeser, 20, was a surprise scratch for the Canucks in the team’s first two games after he had four goals and seven points in the pre-season.
Originally a first-round pick in 2015, Boeser appeared in nine games with the Canucks at the end of last season. He scored four goals and had an assist in those games.
