Charlie McAvoy and his Team USA teammates at the 4 Nations Face-Off retired for the night at their Boston hotel. McAvoy could not sleep. His right shoulder was hurting too much. It had swollen to the point where his trapezius was unrecognizable.

After suffering a shoulder injury and infection during the 4 Nations Face-Off, Charlie McAvoy reflected on the toll over the last two months.

Mentally, emotionally, physically I’ve gone through so much because of that damn experience. It cost me my season. It cost me my sanity, in a lot of ways,” said Charlie McAvoy of Four Nations.
