Charlie McAvoy is sidelined once again due to injury and speculation has started to grow.�

Last week Joe Haggerty reported that the Boston Bruins could be unhappy with McAvoy as he continues to miss action.�

After Haggerty's report came out some chatter started to surface that it wasn't just McAvoy's health that was a problem, rumors of some behavioral issues surfaced as well.�

Team president Cam Neely was asked about the rumours on 98.5FM.

"It's come out," host Michael Felger said to Neely, "that he's not exactly a timely professional. He misses buses, I mean, even [Brad] Marchand said it in an interview. Has there been an issue off the ice with McAvoy with just that little thing?"

"I don't look at it as a major issue," said Neely, specifically addressing McAvoy's behavior. "There was nothing missed .�.�. he was just late. And, as it should be, it's frowned upon.

"But having said that, our locker room handled it, and it should be that way .�.�. for me, it hasn't been elevated to where it's become a real issue .�.�. it's a young player, you know, probably getting caught up in things and trying to figure things out. Not an issue."

What do you think of Neely's comments?
