Chara clearly made an impact
David Pastrnak and Charlie McAvoy were not going to let Zdeno Chara leave without posting their own goodbyes.
Chara signed a one-year deal with the Washington Capitals on Wednesday, ending his 14-year stint with the Boston Bruins.
Both Pastrnak and McAvoy have been a teammate of Chara’s for six and three seasons, respectively, with the latter pairing with the 6-foot-9 defenseman on the blue line.
The duo took to Instagram to share Chara’s heartfelt post on their stories, while also adding their own message. Check it out:
Pastrnak and McAvoy will see Chara plenty of times this season, as the Bruins and Capitals meet eight times.
