McAvoy Injury Mania is in full swing, with everyone anxious to see what's up with the left knee of Charlie McAvoy.
So, what do we know? Not much.
New: Bruins defenseman Charlie McAvoy was present at TD Garden today with a brace on his left knee. https://t.co/Ykypbac2q0

A brace. Huh.
Also:

So there you have it. McAvoy didn't practice, but also didn't have crutches or a cast or anything.
Given that the team let him walk on ice, there may be reason for optimism. After all, if he had a serious knee injury, walking on ice without assistance wouldn't be a great idea.
We'll update when we know more.
UPDATE (1:21 PM): Per the Bruins' Twitter account, he's still being evaluated and will not play tomorrow.
