It’s fair to say that Boston Bruins fans were rejoicing a couple of seasons back when Charlie McAvoy first started showing signs of being a number one defenseman. Unfortunately for them, this season Charlie McAvoy has been lacking in a lot of areas. He hasn’t looked like the same elite player that the Boston Bruins thought they had.
Maybe we can chalk it up to a lot of angst this summer about his restricted free agency negotiations, maybe there’s something much greater at play.
The most telling statistic that sums up Charlie McAvoy right now is that he is sitting on zero goals for the year, 47 games in.
