DeBrusk scored the game’s first goal that ended up being the game-winner. The Bruins challenged it for a hand-pass but were unsuccessful. Coach Joe Sacco was confident it would get overturned, and even DeBrusk wasn’t sure it would count because he’s had similar goals called back — particularly one in the playoffs while with Boston.

Following the game, DeBrusk spoke with reporters, including Conor Ryan, about his experience playing against his former club. While doing so, he revealed that one of his former teammates humorously chirped him during the matchup.
