EDGE Analysis

It's unclear what specifically is causing DeBrusk discomfort, but his status should be updated by the team before Thursday's game against Florida. This is especially unfortunate for the 21-year-old as he's been on a tear lately, posting 10 points (three goals, seven assists) in his last 10 games.

EDGE Analysis

DeBrusk's availability for Wednesday's rivalry game with Montreal will largely depend on how quickly his body can kick the illness, which, as anyone who has had the virus will tell you, could vary greatly. The rookie winger is developing a nice role for himself in the Bruins' offensive schemes, as he has established himself with the team's second power-play unit and is riding a point-per-game pace in the last four contests.

EDGE Analysis
