Today, Boston fans are feeling lucky that Jake DeBrusk is still a Bruin.
DeBrusk, who requested a trade in November 2021, scored two goals on Sunday afternoon to help the Bruins put the Florida Panthers on the brink of elimination with a 6-2 Game 4 win.
The Bruins, still missing their top-two centers, Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci, now lead the first-round series 3-1.
DeBrusk has five goals and nine points in his last 11 playoff games, and that's something Bruins fans aren't taking for granted—especially as he briefly left for the locker room on Sunday after taking a puck to the head.
