Jake DeBrusk takes a shot at other teams after signing in Vancouver
After plenty of speculation, Jake DeBrusk ended up with the Vancouver Canucks, and he's now taken a shot at those teams that didn't ultimately land him.
Jake DeBrusk was one of the top names available in free agency this off-season, and after being linked to the Calgary Flames and Edmonton Oilers among other teams, he ultimately landed in Vancouver. He did so on a deal that many believe was an overpay from the Canucks, inking a seven-year deal worth $5.5M AAV, and now he's taken a shot at those teams that ultimately missed out.
"I wanted to go to a team that could win, and I'm very lucky that they wanted me." DeBrusk said.
It's unclear exactly who DeBrusk was taking a shot at with this statement, but it's safe to say he must have felt disrespected in his free agency talks to come out with such a statement. Now, DeBrusk joins a team that was on the verge of the Western Conference Finals, and with good health they believe they can be a top team in the West, so look for a huge year from the 27-year old in Vancouver.
