Forward Marc Savard has agreed to a long-term contract extension with the Boston Bruins. The deal will pay Savard an average of $4.2 million a year for the next seven years, essentially making him a Bruin for life.

Savard was in the final year of a four year contract and would have been eligible for unrestricted free agency come this summer. Last year he led all Bruins in scoring with 88 points.
