Boston Bruins top prospect Fabian Lysell's fate with the Boston Bruins was just confirmed following an announcement from the team.

The Boston Bruins lost some big players in free agency this year, but no one bigger then Jake DeBrusk. The two sides couldn't come to an agreement after Don Sweeney made it clear that the Bruins took an aggressive approach with the winger.

Ultimately Jake DeBrusk wanted more money and opted to get that through testing free agency. NHL.com reported that the Vancouver Canucks signed Jake DeBrusk to a 7-year, $5.5 million contract.

The Bruins made it clear following free agency that they wanted to find a player internally to replace Jake DeBrusk on the 2RW.

Boston ended free agency by stating there was an internal opening at 2RW and specifically called upon young players [Fabian Lysell] to take it. Lysell scored, skated the puck out of trouble, made plays, shined in transition and 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 got cut. Huge disservice here. #NHLBruins
