Former Bruins forward Charlie Coyle has found his stride with the Colorado Avalanche, entering the playoffs on a hot streak. Coyle recently recorded a goal and two assists against Anaheim, extending his point streak to six games with a total of 11 points, including two goals and nine assists. Initially slow to produce with Colorado after being traded by the Bruins at the deadline, Coyle had only two assists in his first 13 games with the Avalanche.
The Bruins traded Coyle to the Avalanche for center Casey Mittelstadt, prospect Will Zellers, and a 2025 second-round pick, with Colorado also acquiring Boston’s 2026 fifth-round pick. As the Avalanche secure the No. 3 seed in the Central Division, they are set to face the Dallas Stars in the upcoming playoffs. Meanwhile, the Bruins are making roster moves ahead of their finale, with prospects impressing and speculation on the impact of recent games on their NHL Draft position.
