Charlie McAvoy News

McAvoy missed the last two games with a lower-body injury but is expected to replace Urho Vaakanainen in the lineup on Monday. McAvoy, who has 20 points (5G / 15A) in 28 games this season, will be back on the top pairing and PP1 in Washington.

McAvoy missed Thursday's game vs. the Wild but was on the ice for Saturday's morning skate and will be a game-time decision on Tampa. McAvoy has 20 points (5G / 15A) in 28 games this season.

McAvoy's injury is expected to be short-term but it's serious enough to keep him out of the lineup on Thursday. John Moore will replace him on the Bruins' blueline.

McAvoy missed Saturday's game vs. the Lightning but was a full participant in Tuesday's practice and is expected to play Wednesday in Vancouver. McAvoy has been a little quiet as of late, registering just two assists in his last seven games.

McAvoy was not on the ice for Saturday's morning skate and will be a game-time decision. With McAvoy absent, Mike Reilly took over on the top power-play unit during the session.

McAvoy is in the final year of his three-year, $14.7M deal that he signed in September of 2019. His new deal kicks in next year and carries him through the 2030 campaign and represents a $4.6M AAV raise.

McAvoy is one of 16 regulars who will not be in the Bruins lineup on Tuesday. The Bruins will need to recall multiple players from their taxi squad/AHL to fill out their lineup. Steven Kampfer, who was a healthy scratch last night, should draw in to replace McAvoy.

McAvoy missed the last four games with an upper-body injury but was on the ice for Tuesday's morning skate and could play vs. the Sabres. McAvoy skated on PP2 and comes in with 22 points (4G / 18A) in 35 games this season.

McAvoy has returned to Boston to receive treatment on his upper-body injury, so he'll miss at least the three remaining games of their current road trip. With McAvoy out, Steven Kampfer will remain in the lineup and see some PP2 time.

McAvoy was officially listed as a game-time decision but was expected to play tonight vs. the Blue Jackets. McAvoy missed the previous three games but comes in with four assists in his last seven games.

McAvoy missed the last three games with a lower-body injury but is expected to be back in tonight vs. Columbus. McAvoy is still looking for his first goal of the season but has 13 assists and a plus-13 rating in 38 games.

McAvoy suffered a lower-body injury in Boston's win vs. the Capitals last Monday but it was believed to be minor. His move to IR suggests that he'll miss Tuesday's game in New Jersey. He is eligible to return whenever he is healthy but the move to IR opens up a roster spot to call-up Jeremy Lauzon from Providence (AHL).

McAvoy was not on the ice for Saturday's practice and will miss his second straight game on Sunday. It seems possible that McAvoy could be back in the lineup as soon as Tuesday in New Jersey.

McAvoy did not travel to Buffalo for Friday's game but it's a quick one-game trip, so he could be back as soon as Sunday. This is a huge loss for the Bruins, who also placed Torey Krug on IR this morning.
