McAvoy suffered an upper-body injury while playing against the Buffalo Sabres, leading to his premature exit. Subsequently, the 2016 first-round draft pick skated alone last week but is not ready to return to play, raising hopes that he might rejoin the Boston Bruins this week.
On Tuesday night, the Bruins will resume play at TD Garden, where they will be hosting the Minnesota Wild. The game is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m. Eastern Time.
