CSN's Joe Haggerty suggests that DeBrusk could make a run at a roster spot with the Bruins out of training camp.
EDGE Analysis
Taken No. 14 overall by the Bruins in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft after tallying 42 goals for WHL Swift Current in 2014-15, DeBrusk's production fell to 21 goals in 61 games last season, though a painful groin injury he suffered back on November while blocking a shot impacted his season negatively. The report notes that the injury, which required "immediate, emergency surgery," was originally thought to result in the forward missing a couple of months, but instead he returned after missing just 11 games over three weeks. Now well past the issue, DeBrusk is back on the fast track after a strong development camp performance and down the road, the 19-year-old has the potential to blossom into a legit goal-scorer as a pro.
