It took Charlie Coyle a while to get going with the Colorado Avalanche, but the former Bruins forward is heading into the playoffs on a hot streak.
After registering a goal and two assists on Sunday night against Anaheim, Coyle is on a six-game point streak and has 11 points — two goals and nine assists — in those six games.

Coyle, who was traded at the deadline as part of the Bruins’ large-scale sell-off, had just two assists in his first 13 games with Colorado before heading up.
The Bruins dealt Coyle to the Avalanche for a package that included 26-year-old center Casey Mittelstadt, prospect Will Zellers and a 2025 second-round pick. Colorado is getting Boston’s 2026 fifth-round pick.
The Avalanche, who are locked into the No. 3 seed in the Central Division, will face the Dallas Stars (Central No. 2) in the playoffs beginning next week.
