Mike Reilly placed on waivers again, likely to make room for Charlie McAvoy

The Bruins placed defenseman Mike Reilly on waivers again on Wednesday, the second time in a month that he's found himself on the wire.

Reilly cleared last time, but it will be interesting to see if anything changes this time around; teams have now had a month of the season to identify any weaknesses, so someone looking for blue line help might find Reilly to be a palatable option.

While it would stink to lose Reilly for nothing, the reason for his waiving is a positive one overall: Charlie McAvoy appears set to make his season debut after shoulder surgery, possibly as soon as tomorrow night.
