The winger joined Scott Oake and Dave Tomlinson on After Hours on Saturday night where the host reiterated Sedin's lofty praise.
Henrik Sedin once called him the most natural goal scorer he ever played with and through one third of the season Brock Boeser has looked every bit like one,
Oake said.
Boeser answered questions from fans and talked about his early season success after two very difficult seasons that included the death of his father, and how a change in mindset has helped him rediscover his scoring touch.
The 26 year old has 18 goals in 28 games this season, on pace to smash the season best 29 he scored alongside Henrik Sedin, garnering the high praise.
Boeser's 18 goals have him in a tie for 2nd in league scoring. he added an assist in Saturday's win over the Hurricanes.
