After a recent game, Boston Bruins' head coach Jim Montgomery couldn't help but sing the praises of Charlie Coyle and his line's performance. Montgomery stated,
"I thought (Coyle's line) had a tremendous impact. I thought Charlie was dominant, and I thought that his two linemates owned the middle, and in front of the net and in the middle of the ice. So, I thought that second goal, really, it's an exclamation mark on what I think that line can be."

These words of praise from the coach reflect Coyle's significant influence on the ice, showcasing his ability to control and direct the game. It's clear that Montgomery envisions great things for this line, particularly considering their performance during the game in question.

Coyle's linemate, James van Riemsdyk, echoed Montgomery's sentiments, saying,

"He's definitely a horse in the offensive zone with a puck like that. He draws the extra guy to him, so there's lots of open ice out there, and that's kind of what happened on the goal. I think he had a lot of eyes on him, and we were able to find some soft ice and get a couple extra whacks at it."

This, in turn, led to the crucial goal that further underlines Coyle's value to the team.

Coyle's impact on the game and the recognition he's receiving from both his coach and teammates serve as a testament to his skill and contribution to the Boston Bruins. It's clear that Coyle's presence on the ice is a game-changer, and he's a key player to watch in the upcoming matches.
