Jake DeBrusk was the most successful of the Boston Bruins’ three first round picks in 2015, but has now left the team to sign with the Vancouver Canucks.
A longtime Boston Bruins forward now, being in the lineup regularly for six years, there has been trade chatter around Jake DeBrusk for years, which ultimately led to him leaving in free agency.
This was the statement released by the Vancouver Canucks following the max-term (in free agency) $5.5 million annual deal:
Vancouver Canucks General Manager Patrik Allvin announced today that the club has agreed to terms with forward Jake DeBrusk on a seven-year contract with a $5.5 million AAV.
«Jake will be a great addition to our top six and gives us another offensive option up front,» said Allvin. «He is a smart two-way player who plays with pace. He isn’t afraid to go to the tough areas of the ice and uses his strong motor and determination to drive play.»
DeBrusk, 27, appeared in 80 games with the Boston Bruins in 2023.24 posting 40 points (19-21-40), 18 penalty minutes, and a +4 plus/minus rating. He also appeared in 13 playoff games last season recording 11 points (5-6-11) and two penalty minutes.
The 6’1», 198lbs forward has played 465 career regular season games, all with Boston, recording 266 points (138-128-266), 101 penalty minutes, and a +51 plus/minus rating. The Edmonton, Alberta native has appeared in 86 career playoff matchups, posting 47 points (27-20-47) and 36 penalty minutes.
DeBrusk was originally selected by the Boston Bruins in the first round, 14th overall, in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft.
Jake DeBrusk has now gone on a media tour, and has called out the Boston Bruins in the process:
“I wanted to go to a team that could win, and I’m very lucky that they wanted me.” DeBrusk said.
This implies that Jake DeBrusk did not believe the Boston Bruins had what it takes to win a Stanley Cup. If he believes he’s better off in Vancouver, we will see what type of success he brings.
