SigningSigning
The Bruins have signed Jake DeBrusk to a two-year contract extension worth $8.0 million ($4.0M AAV).

DeBrusk was set to become an RFA this summer but signs a two-year extension with the Bruins. DeBrusk asked for a trade earlier in the season, so this could be a sign-and-trade scenario. He has found his game since being promoted to the top line, scoring eight goals with three assists (11 points) in his last 14 games.
