After the team originally targeted today as his return date from a hand and leg injury, Boston Bruins winger Jake DeBrusk will not be in the lineup today when the Boston Bruins host the Washington Capitals.
With the Capitals in town, that means Alexander Ovechkin will continue his pursuit of Wayne Gretzky to becoming the all-time leading goal scorer in NHL history. On Friday, Boston Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery recalled playing against Ovechkin before the greatest Russian player ever was drafted first overall in 2004.
