Charlie McAvoy Scoreless Through Four Games
4 years agoBoston Bruins defenseman Charlie McAvoy was held off the scoresheet for the fourth consecutive time to start the season as his team defeated the visiting Philadelphia Flyers 5-4 in a shootout on Thursday. The 23-year-old, who many believe is primed for a big year with increased responsibility, has yet to show it with a minus-three rating and just seven shots and seven hits thus far. Having lost a battle for a spot on the Bruins top power-play unit to fellow rearguard Matt Grzelcyk, McAvoy is receiving just 1:20 of time on the advantage per game. He'll look to get back on the right track when the Bruins face off against the Flyers again on Saturday.
