Brad Marchand isn't going anywhere.
The star winger has agreed to an eight-year, $49-million contract extension with the Boston Bruins, the club announced Monday.
Marchand is in the final year of a deal carrying an annual cap hit of $4.5 million. He would have been eligible for unrestricted free agency in 2017-18.
"This is an extremely exciting day for me and my family," Marchand said in a statement.
"I would like to thank the Jacobs family, Cam Neely, Don Sweeney, Claude Julien, the coaching staff, my teammates and our fans for their continued support and belief in me. I have been a Bruin since the start of my pro career and there is no place I would rather play. I look forward to doing everything I can to help our team achieve success and bring the Stanley Cup back to Boston."
Marchand's extension is heavily laden with signing bonuses, according to CapFriendly:
