The first few years of Charlie McAvoy's career were great after he was selected 14th overall in 2016.
However, last season (2021-22) was when the Bruins, and the rest of the NHL for that matter, saw McAvoy blossom into one of the league's top-tier defenders.
The majority of the game is played at even strength, and that's where your best players need to be your best players. That was exactly the case for McAvoy, just about every 5-on-5 defensive metric was off the charts.
As per Andy and Rono:
''Man, Charlie McAvoy has been so excellent since 2020, despite playing one of the toughest roles among all defensemen.''
AR Hockey Stats also released their top ten best defensive defensemen from the 2021-22 NHL season.
