Player Discussion Charlie McAvoy IV

[Salem13]

If you have a love in your life, it isn’t real until they look at you the way Bill looks at Charlie

 

[Kazcram]

There is a "good" proposal on the trade page , Mcavoy to the leafs . lol

What on earth could be good about that?

That's a f***ing terrible proposal. Leafs fans are the worst

 

[Krupp]

No thanks. Leafs can f*** off any time. Charlie's a Bruin and it's staying that way.

They can have Kampfer though. He's good, eh?

I too am a big fan of comedy

Thanks for the share

I dont define "good" as trade away your best young defenseman who the whole defenseive crops will be built around once Chara retires PLUS a very talented young winger for a winger that is a 2nd liner in our system and wants to be paid 2 million more than any of the first liners and some unknown (to me) prospects as good

I'm still trying to figure out how that will help the Bruins. Top pair D + 2nd/3rd Wing for 2nd Wing and prospects? Maybe on a team that doesn't have Pasta and Marchand that flies but this causes more problems than it solves, plus Donato quite possible can fill the scoring winger role of Nylander ...for free

50M/8y

Is that enough?

I think based on last years it's a bit much.Now after this year it might not be enough

sorry when i said Good i should have put quotation marks i was being sarcastic

 

[pkunit]

I hope this kid is a Ray Bourque! The similarities are unquestionable.

Best of luck to Charlie recovery. Sukks to hear

 

[DKH]

Really really odd

Doesn’t sound like a conventional injury or concussion

 

[The don godfather]

I would do Mathews for mcavoy. That's a fair deal if they want him.

Why would you post this

 

[Tim Vezina Thomas]

I would do Mathews for mcavoy. That's a fair deal if they want him.

I agree with this, I'd do this yesterday.

 

[Dr Hook]

I agree with this, I'd do this yesterday.

I would not. Matthews is a hell of a talent with bum shoulders. Charlie is a potential franchise D-man. Which one of the two things (creative elite offensive player, elite # 1 dman) is easier to come by? Leaving injury aside- Charlie has had his share too- would you be willing to pay Matthews 12 mil + which is where he is headed right now? Cripes, we have Pasta for half what Matthews is going to get in his next deal.

Yes I do agree I worry about those shoulder. That hit he took from jacob truck trouba Mack edition does concern me. I would do a full medical to see any future concerns if I were to trade charlie.

I'm not going to bring up injuries as a pro/con for either, because they've both had their fair share.

I don't want to take anything away from McAvoy, I think he could be the next Drew Doughty..but I think Matthews is a shade under McDavid talent wise. Thats just my opinion though, and I could certainly see why you wouldnt make the trade.

The fact that they haven't come out and say what it is is absolutely concerning. He's feeling well enough to dress up for Halloween which, I guess is a good sign.... the whole "not feeling right" and no confirmation makes me real nervous.

 

[RussellmaniaKW]

I'm thinking bruised ribs.

 

[Dicky113]

McAvoy is starting to concern me. Lots of potential off the bat, hasn’t proven anything yet and can’t stay in the lineup. Not good.

 

[Emerz]

Hasn't proven anything yet? How about being a staple on the top pair from your first minute of NHL action in the playoffs, putting up near 40 points in his following rookie season while the Bruins have the 3rd lowest goals against in the league.

McAvoy is what he is, a top pairing defender and will be for his whole career unless he's derailed by injuries.

 

[CharasLazyWrister]

The only reason McAvoy hasn’t “leapt out” the way some other guys have is because he’s a D-man.

He’s been asked to be a top pairing guy since coming into the league and has rarely, if ever, looked bad. He has his occasional defensive mishaps, but those have become few and far between.

The only concern I have right now is his health. Aside from that, the guy is going to be a steady D-man on both sides of the puck for as long as he’s in the league.

 

[Sheppy]

6 points in 7 games this year, I mean, that's not a bad start to a season...

 

[Dr Hook]

And that's him at not 100% if the reports we are hearing are to be believed- that his knock occurred in the pre-season in China.
