Surprise press conference addresses the Bruins parting ways with a key forward
A surprise press conference just took place from the Boston Bruins and Don Sweeney, and he revealed that this key forward will in fact be walking in free agency.
It was announced today that Don Sweeney will be having a press conference in Las Vegas a day before the NHL Entry Draft takes place, and the rumours involving Jake DeBrusk have been confirmed.
Don Sweeney during his press conference stated that the Boston Bruins and DeBrusk have not made any progress in contract talks, and that he will be heading to the unrestricted free agent market.
Sweeney on DeBrusk:
"I suspect that Jake will head to UFA and test the market. Remain consistent that we have been in negotiations with Jake � haven't had any productive talks in quite some time.
"At end of the day, that's his prerogative to see what July 1 brings for him."
This is a big loss for the Boston Bruins, do you think they are going to be able to find someone to replace Jake DeBrusk?
