A Boston Bruins defenseman was missing from practice today, and now we know why as Jim Montgomery has revealed it.

Today the Boston Bruins held a morning skate, but were without a couple key players, including Charlie McAvoy, and Matthew Poitras.

The other day Matthew Poitras was missing from practice, and Jim Montgomery revealed that he was day-to-day with an injury, we aren't quite sure what it has to do with.

But this morning it was reported that Charlie McAvoy was missing from practice, and many fans got worried wondering why he was missing.
