David Pastrnak's camp and Bruins management are still working away at a possible contract extension for the winger.
In his contract year, Pasta has recorded 35 goals and 63 points through 45 games, and is due for a big pay raise.
TSN's Darren Dreger recently shared the latest update on the situation:
''Yes, they are, closer than they were even a couple weeks ago. I know that progress was made last week in the discussions between (general manager) Don Sweeney of the Boston Bruins and Pastrnak's agent J.P. Barry.''
‘'But they still have work to do. They are going to continue to grind at the details. So, obviously, that always comes down to the annual average salary — a.k.a. money — the term seems less contentious if it's at all contentious at an eight-year maximum.''
Will a deal get done soon!?
