The Boston Bruins are facing a crucial decision regarding winger Jake DeBrusk's future in their roster beyond the upcoming season.

As DeBrusk can become an unrestricted free agent on July 1, 2024, contract extension talks may be in order sooner rather than later.

An NHL pro scout expressed that DeBrusk's performance will be closely monitored, and the Bruins need to determine their stance on him quickly.

If they enter the season without an extension, a mutual understanding should be established, as many teams may show interest in him next July.

DeBrusk, 26, has impressively hit the 25-goal mark in the past two seasons, showcasing his scoring prowess. He played a vital role in the Bruins' 2019 Stanley Cup Final run.

Scouts have identified DeBrusk's clutch performances in the Stanley Cup playoffs, making him a potential target for other NHL teams in 2024, either as a free agent or a trade deadline acquisition.

The Bruins must carefully assess their plans with DeBrusk, considering his scoring abilities and potential value to the team's long-term success.
