Bruins announce a trio of defenceman underwent surgeries on Friday
The Boston Bruins announced that defencemen Charlie McAvoy, Matt Grzelcyk and Mike Reilly all underwent different surgeries on Friday and their recovery time vary.
Mike Reilly had surgery to repair his right ankle tendon and to remove bone fragments. The Bruins say Reilly will be out for three months.
As for Matt Grzelcyk, he will miss at least four months after having a right shoulder open stabilization today.
Meanwhile, the biggest name out of this trio, Charlie McAvoy, will not be ready for the start of the 2022-23 season and will be out for six months after undergoing a left shoulder arthroscopic stabilization.
Prior to announcing these surgeries, the Bruins were already dealt a major blow with Brad Marchand having surgery on both of his hips last week. Losing Marchand and McAvoy for the first couple months of the 2022-23 is going to hurt the Bruins badly.
