Charlie Coyle showcased his scoring prowess with two key third-period goals that led the Boston Bruins to a 6-3 victory against the San Jose Sharks at TD Garden. Coyle's performance overshadowed that of fellow Boston University alumni Macklin Celebrini, who was making his NHL debut. The Bruins’ win marked their 14th consecutive victory over the Sharks.
Coyle's first goal tied the game 3-3 after receiving a slick backhanded pass from Matt Poitras, followed by a second goal that put the Bruins ahead. The game also featured an own goal by Sharks’ Jake Walman, as David Pastrnak's shot hit him before going into the net.
