Recently, the Boston Bruins announced that they have signed 22-year-old Jeremy Lauzon to a two-year contract extension that will run through the 2021-22 season.
The deal will come with a cap hit of $850K, giving the Bruins some options on the blue line going forward.
Lauzon has only one point in 10 games with the Boston Bruins this season, but has been able to hold his own in the defensive zone and brings a level of toughness that many Bruins fans have been waiting to see more of.
Dropping the gloves against Matthew Tkachuk the other night only did more to endear him to the Bruins fans who have been waiting for somebody to bring that type of physicality back to Boston.
