The Vancouver Canucks dropped some major news about the season Jake DeBrusk just had, highlighting an achievement that and it is raising some eyebrows in which no one is talking about.
After spending seven years with the Boston Bruins, general manager Don Sweeney decided that it was in the organizations best interest to part ways with DeBrusk as he believed he was demanding too much on his next contract.
In turn, Patrik Allvin jumped on the opportunity to sign the 28-year-old forward raising some eyebrows that the Vancouver Canucks may have overpaid for a player of his caliber.
Jake DeBrusk is signed to a 7-year, $38,500,000 contract with a cap hit of $5,500,000 per season, currently playing for the Vancouver Canucks. His contract was signed on July 1, 2024, and expires at the end of the 2030-31 season, when DeBrusk will be 34 years old. - Puckpedia
But, after his first stint with his hometown team, it fully appears that the Canucks make the right decision in taking a risk with DeBrusk.
In the final three games of the season, DeBrusk was able to set his new career high in goals, scoring his 28th of the season in electrifying fashion against the San Jose Sharks.

As a player who was coined as someone who can struggle with consistency at times during his tenure with the Bruins, the risk of handing him a big contract at his age was questionable, but by giving him this opportunity paid off, and there is no reason why he cant reach the 30 goal marker for the first time in 2026.
DeBrusk's performance is exactly as was described on the tin - a scoring winger who can run as cold as he does hot. This was not a secret at the time of his signing. He may not be consistent, but the Canucks undoubtedly benefitted from his hot streaks. - Arielle Lalonde
Coming two points shy of his high point totals (50), DeBrusk's full stat line for the 2024-2025 season saw him set 28 goals and 20 assists for 48 points, proving his consistency was never an issues during the teams disappointing season.
