Charlie McAvoy mentors Frederic Brunet at Bruins training camp

Frederic Brunet has spent the initial days of Boston Bruins training camp learning alongside Charlie McAvoy. Brunet, a fifth-round pick in 2022, views McAvoy as a key mentor while developing his skills after three seasons in Providence. McAvoy praised Brunet's skill set and emphasized the importance of communication, reflecting on his own early experiences alongside Zdeno Chara. With this mentorship, Brunet aims to secure a spot on the NHL roster as he competes against more experienced players before the season opener on September 29. Marco Sturm, Bruins assistant coach, believes this pairing will aid Brunet's transition into the NHL.
