With the addition of Will Borgen—a disciplined, physically imposing defenseman with shorthanded experience—they’re redistributing duties to keep McAvoy fresher for other responsibilities. While McAvoy was second in league shorthanded ice time behind Zadorov (who leads in penalties), the Bruins’ penalty kill ranked 24th over the past two seasons. Though they improved in the playoffs by shutting down the Sabres, McAvoy and Lindholm still carried the bulk of the load. The goal? More consistent performance from their top defenseman by smartly managing his minutes without removing him from the penalty kill entirely.
