Heading into a contract year with unrestricted free agency on the horizon, the Bruins face a delicate situation, delaying an extension due to other signings.
Retaining DeBrusk is essential as the 26-year-old winger demonstrated growth, tallying 27 goals and 50 points in just 64 games.
He brings consistency to the team's offense and should be part of their future plans. Given the cap constraints, postponing DeBrusk's extension allows time to evaluate his performance while he aims to earn a more substantial contract.
A well-considered decision is crucial as the Bruins seek a successor to Bergeron while maintaining competitiveness.
