Justin Brazeau has yet to make his playoff debut, but it’s not too late for the Bruins’ rookie power forward.

As the Bruins look to extend their 1-0 series lead over the Leafs in the teams’ first round clash on Monday, coach Jim Montgomery offered an optimistic update on Brazeau.

The 26-year-old suffered an upper-body injury on April 2 in a road win over the Nashville Predators and hasn’t played a game since.

“I don’t know exactly, but I would say round two,” Montgomery told reporters about the soonest Brazeau could return, per NESN.
