Post the NHL All-Star Break, the Boston Bruins saw the return of forwards Jake DeBrusk and Matthew Poitras, alongside defenseman Derek Forbort, back to the practice ice.

Their unexpected absence as late injury scratches before the Bruins' triumphant 6-2 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers added an element of surprise to their return.

Head coach Jim Montgomery had left the status of these players uncertain before the break, particularly focusing on DeBrusk, who has recently voiced his eagerness for a contract extension with the Bruins.

Amidst the lingering uncertainties, DeBrusk's commendable recent performance has garnered attention and praise from Coach Montgomery. The reintegration of Poitras and Forbort enhances the Bruins' lineup with added depth and resilience.
