Jake Debrusk has been with the Boston Bruins for seven years and now that his contract has come to an end, he finds himself a free agent. The Bruins would love to keep him on their team but it appears their General Manager Don Sweeney is not willing to pay to keep him.

Debrusk had a good last season with the Bruins and he also proved to be trustworthy during the NHL playoffs before falling to the Florida Panthers. Debrusk wants to continue with the Boston Bruins but if he does not receive an offer from them before July 1rst, there are a few teams who would be interested in adding him to their lineup in the following season including the Seattle Kraken.

" DeBrusk will definitely have some suitors on the free agent market if it gets to that, particularly from the more offensively challenged teams. " -Dave Litman


Litman thinks that teams who need improvements with their current offense would be a good fit for Debrusk and one team that stands out right now is the Seattle Kraken.

"One of the things I have heard... is that there are teams looking for scoring who are going to be interested. I know some other teams have speculated that Seattle would be the kind of team that would be interested in DeBrusk. " - Insider Elliotte Friedman


According to the insider Elliote Friedman, the Kraken have expressed interest in Debrusk. Seattle has made a significant drop from their 2022-2023 season to there 2023-2024 season landing number 29 in the National Hockey League. The gap between the two seasons may indicate that the Kraken need more upgrades offensively. The Kraken are aware of how talented and skilled Debrusk is and what he will add to them if the Boston Bruins fail to renew another contract with him before next season. Looks like we will have to wait and see what Boston's next move will be.
