It was the NHL coming-of-age moment for Jake DeBrusk.
Every NHL player has one and the rookie forward for the Boston Bruins experienced his during Saturday’s 3-1 win over the New York Islanders at TD Garden. Here’s the skinny: He took exception to the clean hit the Islanders’ Casey Cizikas put on teammate Charlie McAvoy, so DeBrusk dropped the gloves and held his own against a fierce combatant. DeBrusk was given a two-minute penalty for instigating, five for fighting and a 10-minute misconduct.
