Although he's missed action for some time due to a broken fibula, DeBrusk has continued his remarkable season with the Bruins, notching his 20th goal of the season in St. Louis.
Following the game, DeBrusk joined the NHL on TNT panel to discuss his team's 4-3 shootout win over the Blues. Former Bruin, Anson Carter, inquired if DeBrusk felt like the "Grinch Who Stole Christmas" for taking Frederic's hometown goal.
DeBrusk's response was unforgettable:
Although DeBrusk felt remorse for taking Frederic's meaningful goal, the St. Louis native himself stressed the significance of playing in front of his family.

In just 59 games this season, the 26-year-old has equaled his career-high in goals (25) and already surpassed his previous records in assists (23) and points (48).
