Brock Boeser has cemented his place in Vancouver Canucks history with a major milestone.
The veteran forward collected his 500th point in a Canucks uniform on Friday, becoming just the eighth player in franchise history to do so.
Boeser's milestone point came with an assist on a first-period goal by Elias Pettersson.
"It means a lot," Boeser told Sportsnet's Dan Murphy during the first intermission. "I've been here a long time and anytime you can get a milestone like that it means the world, and just happy to do it with these guys."
The Canucks drafted Boeser in the first round, 23rd overall, of the 2015 NHL Draft, and he is the longest-tenured player on the team.
The 29-year-old has skated in 650 games over his 11-year career, collecting 233 goals and 267 assists.
The other players to score 500 points with the Canucks are Henrik Sedin (1,070), Daniel Sedin (1,041), Markus Naslund (756), Trevor Linden (733), Stan Smyl (673), Thomas Gradin (550) and Pettersson (529).
