Since he was given his shot, Brazeau has proved he belongs in the NHL and is exactly what the Bruins needed. The Bruins were looking for a tough fourth line forward that also has a solid hockey IQ. They found exactly that in Brazeau without necessarily meaning to.
Now the question on everyone mind is how can they take him out of the lineup once Pat Maroon is healthy? Even though Brazeau has been playing very well, Maroon is a proven winner that has a lot of the same qualities as Brazeau.
Brazeau had a great season in the AHL before being brought up with 37 points in 49 games for Providence. During his time in the NHL, the young forward currently has 7 points in 15 games with a 6 +/- rating.
