Boston may not technically be the home of the Czechia native David Krejci, but it's exactly where he feels he belongs.

That's why the 36-year-old signed a one-year, $3 million contract to return to the Bruins, the only NHL team he has known.

''When I decided to come backI obviously had to talk to [Bruins general manager Don Sweeney] - he let me know he wants me on the team, and I told him that's the team I want to play for, that's the only team I want to play for. And that's what I told my agent.''

As per Bruins PR:


''Krejci is back with the club for a 16th season and will be building on an already impressive Black & Gold resume, which includes a championship, two playoff scoring titles, and all-time top-10 rankings in games played, assists, and points - not to mention all-time top-five rankings in postseason games played, assists, and points. That lengthy list of accolades, however, is nothing compared to the teammates and friends he's formed bonds within Boston along the way.''
