Charlie McAvoy praises Bruins fans

Boston's 2-1 OT win over the Tampa Bay Lightning was crucial standings-wise, as it helped them move up to third place in the Atlantic.

Bruins fans are very passionate, and they span all across North America, as evident in their most recent road matchup.

Amalie Arena, the place that the Lightning call home, was sold out for Friday night's tilt, with an attendance of 19,092. Most notably was the amount of black and yellow visible throughout the arena, and the "let's go Bruins" chants were loud and clear.

Boston's all-star defender, Charlie McAvoy, sent out a tweet Saturday praising Bruins fans for their loyalty:
