DeBrusk (upper body) will return Thursday evening against the visiting Coyotes, Joe Haggerty of NBC Sports Boston reports.
EDGE Analysis
This is huge for the B's and fantasy owners alike, as the rookie has dazzled to the tune of eight points (three goals, five assists) since November started, plus we have him projected to reprise his role on the No. 2 power-play unit.

DeBrusk (upper body) is officially a game-time decision for Thursday's tilt against Arizona.
EDGE Analysis
The rookie forward returned to practice Wednesday, skating to David Krejci's left on the team's second line. Despite getting one full practice in prior to game day, all indications are pointing to DeBrusk's participation in Thursday's game. The Bruins would love to get DeBrusk back into the fold soon, as he had racked up six points and a plus-7 rating in the six games played prior to getting injured.

DeBrusk (upper body) has been ruled out of Monday's tilt in Nashville.
EDGE Analysis
DeBrusk was seen at Monday's practice, though he didn't take part in line rushes. While this injury will now have held DeBrusk out of three contests, head coach Bruce Cassidy believes that the rookie will be able to play Thursday against Arizona. With DeBrusk out of the lineup, Ryan Spooner -- who has a point in each of his last three games -- will continue as the Bruins' second-line left wing.

DeBrusk (upper body) is listed on injured reserve, per the NHL's official media site.
EDGE Analysis
With five goals and 12 points through his first 21 at hockey's highest level, DeBrusk is demonstrating the reasons behind his 14th overall selection in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft. However, his fantasy owners have to be hoping this malady doesn't linger, as it's not easy for players -- particularly rookies -- to reestablish a rhythm upon returning. At any rate, DeBrusk will be eligible to return against the Predators on Monday, so check back to see if he travels to Nashville for that game.

DeBrusk (upper-body) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
DeBrusk's next chance to play will arrive Monday, when the Bruins play Nashville on the road. The promising young forward's injury comes at an inopportune juncture, as he had really found his stride of late. In his last four games prior to being sidelined, the 21-year-old winger combined for two goals and five points.

DeBrusk is out for Wednesday's game against Tampa Bay due to an upper-body injury.
EDGE Analysis
The injuries just keep piling up for the Bruins, as DeBrusk represents the seventh forward to join the current ranks of the walking wounded and the eighth player overall. It's extra unfortunate too because the 21-year-old was enjoying a nice run of success lately, recording six points and a plus-7 rating in his last six contests. Brad Marchand (undisclosed), David Backes (illness), and Ryan Spooner (undisclosed) are possibilities to play Wednesday, but if any or all of them can't go, the team will likely have to employ a recall to fill the gaps up front.

DeBrusk had a pair of helpers in a 4-3 victory Friday over Pittsburgh.
EDGE Analysis
Something appears to have gotten through to DeBrusk in the past two weeks. Since being scratched on Veterans Day, he's responded with six points in his past five contests, scoring in four of them. If this new and improved version of him is real, he's going to find himself on many more fantasy rosters before long.

DeBrusk opened the scoring in Wednesday's 3-2 shootout win over New Jersey.
EDGE Analysis
DeBrusk tallied his fifth goal of the season on a two-on-one break, ringing in a shot off the far post. Since returning to the mix after being a healthy scratch on Nov. 11, DeBrusk has recorded two goals and four points in four contests, while displaying improved jump in the process. Rather than emerge from the benching deflated, the 21-year-old has been energized since his return, in the process helping the banged-up Bruins reel off three straight wins.

DeBrusk assisted on the game-tying goal and minutes later scored the eventual game-winner Saturday against San Jose.
EDGE Analysis
DeBrusk is making a strong impact in his debut NHL season, notching four goals and nine points through 18 contests. The 21-year-old is slotted on the second line and seeing occasional power-play time. His strong totals over his WHL and AHL careers indicate he's one to watch in the coming years. DeBrusk was a healthy scratch at a point this season, but if he can stick in the lineup, he offers some valuable services in deeper formats.

After being a healthy scratch for the first time this season Saturday against the Maple Leafs, DeBrusk is poised to return to the Bruins' lineup Wednesday against the Ducks, CSN New England's Joe Haggerty reports.
EDGE Analysis
Look for DeBrusk to skate on a line with Matt Beleskey and Kuraly on Wednesday. The 21-year-old winger will return to the B's lineup with three goals and six points to his credit over the course of 15 games, to go along with a team-worst minus-10 rating. After seeing DeBrusk notch just one goal in his last 11 games, the Bruins elected to sit the youngster Saturday, giving him a chance to re-group in advance of the team's back-to back set Wednesday and Thursday (against the Kings).
