""Charlie had facial surgery, successfully," Sturm said."
""He's doing good. He's recovering right now at home. We still don't know how long he's going to be out.""
Charlie McAvoy underwent facial surgery after sustaining a jaw injury from a slap shot by Montreal defenseman Noah Dobson during Saturday's 3-2 win over the Canadiens. McAvoy was on a shorthanded shift when the shot struck his mouth, causing immediate visible bleeding and the loss of teeth on the ice. He was helped off the ice with a towel and later cleared to travel to Boston, but continued medical evaluations led to surgery. McAvoy has been sidelined since the game and has no set timeline for return. His absence represents a major setback for the Bruins given his recent strong play; he did not join the team on the West Coast trip.
