A lot has changed since the last time Charlie McAvoy took the ice with his Bruins teammates on Feb. 8.
Despite their shaky postseason odds, Boston was still in the hunt at that juncture on the NHL calendar — with an established group featuring the likes of Brad Marchand, Brandon Carlo, and Charlie Coyle all looking to claw the team out of its extended malaise.
And even with the roller coaster that was the first four months of the 2024-25 campaign, McAvoy still had plenty to look forward to during the league’s two-week stoppage — with the 27-year-old defenseman expected to play a key role for Team USA in the 4 Nations Face-Off.
