DeBrusk rescinds trade request from Bruins
After requesting a trade from the team last year, it appears Jake DeBrusk is now content to stick around with the Boston Bruins.
TSN's Ryan Rishaug reports DeBrusk's agent, Rick Valette, informed Bruins general manager Don Sweeney last week that the winger's trade request has been rescinded.
DeBrusk signed a two-year, $8 million extension with the Bruins in March, despite still having a trade request with the team.
The 25-year-old winger had 25 goals and 42 points in 77 games last season along with two goals and four points in seven playoff games as the Bruins were eliminated in the first round by the Carolina Hurricanes.
Drafted 14th overall by the Bruins in 2015, he re-signed with Boston on March 21 to a two-year, $8 million contract.
In 321 career NHL games, the Edmonton product has 92 goals and 176 points.
