Bruins’ McAvoy to return to lineup vs. Lightning

The injury-riddled Boston Bruins will get a bit of a boost to their blue line on Tuesday, as rookie defenseman Charlie McAvoy is set to the return.

McAvoy has been out of the lineup for the past 15 games due to a knee injury, with his last appearance coming on March 3.

The Bruins face off against the Tampa Bay Lightning in a game that could prove to have major playoff implications, with the two teams separated by just two points atop the Atlantic Division.

In 59 games this season, McAvoy has notched seven goals and 25 assists, good for third in scoring among rookie defensemen.
