This bird may not be able to fly free with all the injuries it’s picking up.
Charlie McAvoy was one of a number of players yesterday who didn’t see action for Team USA against Sweden, and apparently he’s been admitted to Mass General to deal with an upper body injury, per the Boston Globe’s Jim McBride.
This is just another one of the major setbacks the US has faced coming out of the win over Canada, where they’ve had Matthew Tkachuk and Auston Matthews out for undisclosed injuries, and only recently lost Brady Tkachuk during their 2-1 loss to Sweden.
