A piece of my lilac bush broke off in a storm. Can I replant this, if so how? It's about 5 ft. tall. It is soaking in a bucket of water for now.

I would soak it in a rooting hormone, then replant in the soil.
Do I have to remove the flowers in order to re-root a piece from lilac bushes?
It depends how long it was without water. You may need to cut up some to give it a fresh place to start rooting from.
Where did it break off?
Some said it could be a hit or miss. But it's worth a try if you like the lilac. :)

I have, numerous times, by using rooting hormone.
