Bruins Winger Jake DeBrusk Reveals He Once Was Spat On By Canadiens Fan
Montreal Canadiens fans are some of the most aggressive in the NHL, something Jake DeBrusk knows all too well.
During an appearance Wednesday on 98.5 The Sports Hub’s “Toucher & Rich,” the Boston Bruins forward revealed he once was spat on by a fan at Bell Centre. And, believe it or not, DeBrusk apparently didn’t mind.
“My rookie year, I was coming out for warmups and I got spit on. Somebody spit on me,” DeBrusk said. ” … That was kind of cool though, I kinda liked it.”
Listen to DeBrusk tell the story at the 29-minute mark in the audio player below:

Talk about a hostile crowd. Though, as DeBrusk alluded to, sometimes the obnoxiousness of opposing fans can work in a team’s favor.
The Bruins beat the Carolina Hurricanes on Tuesday to remain atop the NHL’s overall standings. Boston will return to the ice Thursday night when it hosts the Chicago Blackhawks.
