DeBrusk posted a power-play assist and four PIM in Saturday's 7-2 win over the Blues in Game 3.
EDGE Analysis
DeBrusk is up to six assists and nine points in 20 postseason games, with four of those points coming on the man advantage. The winger has not hesitated to shoot, averaging 2.60 shots per game, but his shooting percentage has plummeted from 17.3 percent in the regular season to 5.8 percent in the playoffs.

DeBrusk notched an assist in 14:06 of ice time during Wednesday's Game 2 loss to the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
It was nice to see DeBrusk back on the scoresheet Wednesday, as he had been held pointless in the Bruins' previous three contests. The 22-year-old winger will now look to snap his four-game goalless streak Saturday during Game 3.

DeBrusk scored a goal while logging 14:32 of ice time during Tuesday's 2-1 Game 3 loss to the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
DeBrusk picked up his second goal of the postseason with less than a minute remaining in the second period to bring the Bruins back within one of Columbus, but the Jackets were able to shut the door on Boston in the third period, picking up a 2-1 home victory to take a 2-1 series lead. DeBrusk will hope to find twine for a second straight game and help his team even up the series Thursday in Columbus.

DeBrusk finished Monday's 3-2 loss to Toronto with an assist.
EDGE Analysis
DeBrusk was playing only two days removed from receiving a crosscheck to the head, courtesy of Nazim Kadri -- Kadri has since been suspended for the remainder of the first round as a result of the incident. Considering DeBrusk finished with 17:58 TOI, the most ice time he's seen through three playoff games, it's safe to assume he is feeling no ill effects from the incident involving Kadri.

DeBrusk (undisclosed) will play in Monday night's road game against the Maple Leafs.
EDGE Analysis
DeBrusk took a cross-check to the face from Toronto's Nazem Kadri on Saturday, but the winger will be a go in Monday's Game 3, which sets the stage for him to man the left wing of the Bruins' second line as well as see top unit power-play duty.

DeBrusk (undisclosed) participated in Monday's morning skate.
EDGE Analysis
DeBrusk, who exited Saturday's game against the Maple Leafs after being cross-checked in the head by Nazem Kadri, is now evidently on track to play in Monday night's Game 3, on a line with David Krejci and Karson Kuhlman.

DeBrusk underwent tests after being cross-checked in the head by Nazem Kadri in Saturday's game versus the Maple Leafs, Conor Ryan of MassLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
DeBrusk dished out a knee-to-knee hit on Kadri earlier in the game before issuing a hard check on Patrick Marleau in the third period. Kadri took exception and targeted DeBrusk with a cross-check to the head. Kadri was ejected from the game and will likely face a hefty suspension for his actions. We'll have an update on DeBrusk's condition as information becomes available.

DeBrusk (undisclosed) will play in Game 2 versus the Maple Leafs on Saturday, Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
DeBrusk sat out of Friday's practice for maintenance, but it's all systems go for the 22-year-old winger. He went pointless in Game 1, but he should slot into the top six since Marcus Johansson (undisclosed) is sitting out.

DeBrusk (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision for Saturday's Game 2 against the Maple Leafs.
EDGE Analysis
For what it's worth, coach Bruce Cassidy expects DeBrusk to play Saturday, but it's a situation worth monitoring for fantasy owners that are considering deploying the 22-year-old winger in daily contests.
