Bruins' Charlie Coyle: Joins the party in win
Rotowire
Coyle scored two goals on three shots, recorded one block and added one hit in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Canadiens.
Coyle was part of the first-period fun when Boston scored three times within 70 seconds. His was the third of that trio, as Coyle eventually controlled a loose rebound and scored on a backhander while facing away from the net. He later took advantage of lax backchecking and deked Montreal's Cayden Primeau early in the third to given Boston a 5-1 lead. Coyle had been one of several Bruins in a scoring slumber, but he now has three goals in the last two games.

Bruins' Charlie Coyle: Nets lone goal in loss
Rotowire
Coyle scored a goal on two shots in Friday's 2-1 loss to the Penguins.
Coyle snapped a four-game skid with his goal just 1:24 into the game. That was all the Bruins could muster against Tristan Jarry and the Penguins -- a concerning sign giving the visitors' myriad defensive struggles. The Bruins' offense hasn't been anything to write home about either, and that's been obvious with Coyle's own performance. He has five goals, one assist, 35 shots on net, 41 hits, 20 blocked shots and a minus-10 rating over 25 outings, and three of his five tallies have come on the power play.

Bruins' Charlie Coyle: Scores in blowout loss Thursday
Rotowire
Coyle scored a goal, took three shots and recorded a hit in Thursday's 7-2 loss to the Stars.
The Bruins looked drastically overmatched throughout this entire contest, but Coyle made his presence felt by notching his third goal of the campaign. That said, the center has only three goals and four points across 18 contests in 2024-25. His production has been minimal and doesn't warrant serious consideration for a roster spot, but it's worth noting he's more valuable in formats that reward physicality since he's also racked up 29 hits and 17 blocked shots.

Rotowire
Coyle scored a power-play goal on four shots, added two hits and blocked two shots in Sunday's 2-0 win over the Kraken.

Coyle earned career highs with 25 goals and 60 points in 82 regular-season games last year, but his slow start to 2024-25 will jeopardize his chances of a repeat performance.

Bruins' Charlie Coyle: Pots pair in loss
Rotowire
Coyle scored twice in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Flames.
Coyle scored the opening goal for the Bruins on a terrible giveaway by Jacob Markstrom that ended up in an empty cage.

The 31-year old center has been on a drought of late -- he hadn't scored since Jan. 27 prior to this contest. Coyle is a reliable two-way center who can contribute in several categories and will provide occasional scoring outbursts.

Coyle notched two assists in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Avalanche.
He helped set up two of David Pastrnak's three tallies on the night.
