Jake DeBrusk has been a solid player for the Boston Bruins over the past few years, but it appears that his future may not reside in New England at all.
Alberta teams circling the hometown kid
According to a report, the 27-year old would love to stay in Boston, but if that doesn't happen, he's got his future lined up.
Former Analyst, Head Coach and front office official Pierre McGuire has now gone on record to state that unless Boston can re-sign him soon, that both Alberta teams, the Calgary Flames and Edmonton Oilers would offer him a huge contract this summer.
«But here's what I do know: If the Bruins don't sign him – and, I don't know if they will or won't, I'm sure they value him – I guarantee him an Alberta team will offer him a major contract,» McGuire said. «I guarantee you, whether it's Edmonton or Calgary, he's going to be taken care of in the province of Alberta. That's if Boston doesn't sign him, and that's not a scare tactic; it's reality. I mean, there's a need there for that type of player.»
A rising star in the NHL
Last season, DeBrusk posted a career high of 50 points, and this year he's got 25 in just 47 games, so while he's not at the elite level right now, there's no doubting that he's got the potential to be a key piece for a team going forward.
Ultimately, the playoff performance in Boston may decide his future beyond this season, but for now, keep an eye on the Flames and Oilers who appear poised to give DeBrusk a huge deal this summer.
