Speaking at the Perry Pearn 3 vs. 3 Hockey Camp, Jake DeBrusk of the Boston Bruins shared his desire to continue his journey with the team he has grown up alongside, marking his first public comments since May. DeBrusk conveyed his sentiment, saying,
His contract is slated to conclude next July, and while he entrusts his agent to navigate negotiations, his primary focus remains on delivering an even more impressive performance in the upcoming season.
Following a remarkable season that saw him tally 27 goals and 23 assists in 64 games, DeBrusk is setting his sights higher for the approaching 2023-24 season. Despite the impending contract discussions, he maintains a strong sense of confidence, emphasizing, "I'm not overly fixated on that. I've had experience with testing the waters previously, and right now, my main focus is on hockey."
Turning toward the future, Don Sweeney, the General Manager of the Bruins, has substantial cap space at his disposal. However, forthcoming decisions will hinge on a range of factors. Should the Bruins and DeBrusk find common ground, a contract arrangement similar to Brandon Hagel's recent deal might come into play.
