Charlie McAvoy
Charlie McAvoy is the heartbeat of the blue line. He'll throw a hip check that rattles the boards, then be the first one up ice on the breakout ten seconds later.
When he's in the lineup, everything on the back end gets easier. Partners look better, the power play moves quicker, and the other team's top line spends a lot more time in its own end.
Through 4 games, Charlie has 2 points: 1 goal and 1 assist. Homegrown, too: Boston took him in the 1st round in 2016.
RD, #73. Shoots right, 6'1", 215 lb. Born Dec 21, 1997 in Long Beach, USA. Drafted 2016, Round 1, #14 overall (BOS).
