Bruins defenseman Charlie McAvoy faced some backlash after the Bruins were eliminated from the playoffs.
McAvoy only had 1 point in the entire second round which was the game winning goal in game 5. Some fans have taken to social media to go after the Bruins defenseman for his lack of production.
Legend Ray Bourque spoke of McAvoy in a recent interview saying that his problem is that he is trying to do too much out there inn certain times. Bourque did however say that McAvoy is an incredible defenseman and that he is continuously getting better every year.
"I think the ceiling is unlimited for him and that's a part of the problem," Bourque said. "He's so talented in all areas. Charlie sometimes, I think, he tried to do too much, and he cares so much. Sometime less would be more. I would take him on my team any day. He's an amazing talent, he's a great kid, he works hard, and he cares"
"Playing (defenseman) is not easy and (the Bruins) had to go through Florida, another team that makes it really hard on you as a defenseman and doesn't give you much time and much space," Bourque said. "So, I'm not worried about Charlie. This kid just keeps getting better and better."
