William Morrow+FollowBruins fans: McAvoy’s return could spark a turnaroundCharlie McAvoy’s jaw injury has really shaken up the Bruins’ season. After taking a puck to the face and undergoing surgery, he’s been sidelined for weeks—dropping 20 pounds and stuck on liquids until late December. The team’s been missing his energy, going 4-5 since he left the lineup. While Hampus Lindholm and Mason Lohrei have stepped up, it’s clear McAvoy’s presence is hard to replace. With the Bruins clinging to second in the Atlantic Division, his expected January return could be the boost they need for the playoff push. How do you think the team will fare until he’s back? #Sports #IceHockey #NHL00Share
Martha Garza+FollowBruins fans react: McAvoy’s return and a wild nightSeeing Charlie McAvoy back on the ice—even in a red non-contact jersey—was the kind of moment that lifts the whole Bruins community. After weeks out from that scary puck-to-the-face injury, his presence alone had teammates and fans smiling. Meanwhile, Viktor Arvidsson made it a night to remember with his 200th career point and assist, helping Boston to a big win. And then there’s Jim Montgomery, whose comments about last season’s collapse have everyone talking. Is he right to share the blame, or just dodging responsibility? Let’s hear your take, Bruins Nation! #Sports #IceHockey #NHL00Share
Martha Garza+FollowBruins fans dodged a bullet with Frederic tradeSeeing Trent Frederic struggle in Edmonton really puts the Bruins’ tough trade deadline moves into perspective. The Oilers handed Frederic a massive 8-year, $30.8 million contract, but he’s barely making an impact—just two goals in 27 games and already demoted to the fourth line. It’s wild to think how different things could be if Boston had kept him and matched that deal. Don Sweeney took a lot of heat for those trades, but looking at how things are playing out, it’s clear he made the right call. Would you have wanted Frederic on that contract in Boston? #Sports #IceHockey #NHL00Share
