Bruins<\/a> defenseman Charlie McAvoy<\/a> played in his first game since Nov. 15 on Thursday night, collecting an assist in Boston’s 6-3 win<\/a> over the Jets<\/a> in Winnipeg, Manitoba.<\/p>\n McAvoy had been sidelined since taking a slap shot to the face from Montreal Canadiens<\/a> defenseman Noah Dobson<\/a>. He suffered what he called a “linear fracture” to the left side of his face and lost 20 pounds in the days afterward while relegated to a liquid diet.<\/p>\n McAvoy joined the Bruins on their current three-game road trip and played just over 24 minutes against the Jets.<\/p>\n The Bruins were 6-5 in the 11 games McAvoy missed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dec 11, 2025, 04:37 PM ET Bruins defenseman Charlie McAvoy played in his first game since Nov. 15…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":344155,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[66],"tags":[385,99],"class_list":{"0":"post-344154","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nhl","8":"tag-nhl","9":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/344154","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=344154"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/344154\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/344155"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=344154"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=344154"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=344154"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
