As Jake DeBrusk enters the final year of his contract, his recent performance suggests he's poised for a substantial payday.

Comparisons with Brad Marchand's contract highlight the potential magnitude of DeBrusk's next deal. Marchand's eight-year agreement, boasting an average annual value (AAV) of $6.125 million, set the bar.

Looking back at Marchand's formative years (2009-2016), his stats stood at 153 goals, 136 assists, and 289 points in 454 games.

Remarkably, DeBrusk is yet to play his pre-UFA season, and his numbers closely mirror those of Marchand when he inked his deal in 2016.

As the season unfolds, all eyes are on DeBrusk's contract year performance and the potential negotiations that lie ahead.
