It's been quite a week for Charlie McAvoy in the news as we've heard his name get attached to some Tyler Seguin type behaviour.�

Luckily for everybody involved that seems to be far from the case.�

Head coach Bruce Cassidy laughed off the rumors while Brad Marchand went to bat for his teammate.�

After skating with his teammates for the first time at practice on Wednesday, McAvoy met with the media and responded to a question asked about the rumors.�

"A learning experience non the less, there was definitely a learning opportunity, I'm trying to be really receptive of that and I think I am, I don't really think it was big thing going on and I think everybody figured that out after people were surprised to even hear such a thing" McAvoy told Joe Haggerty of NBC Sports "We had a bit of a talk between the young guys and the veterans and we're very fortunate, I get to walk into the locker room everyday with guys like Z and Bergey and Marchy, real consummate pros, guys I idolize and want to be just like that, if I can learn their habits I'll be better off for it. "

Sounds like while the rumours were acknowledged in the locker room, the whole thing was definitely blown out of proportion.�
