The Bruins are already shorthanded in this contest, as Charlie McAvoy and Mark Kastelic were placed on injured reserve earlier today. In addition, Hampus Lindholm is still not ready to return to the lineup. Thus, not having another key player in Coyle against the Lightning would be tough for Boston.
Coyle, 32, has appeared in 45 games this season with the Bruins, posting 10 goals, 14 points, and a minus-6 rating. This is after he set career highs with 25 goals and 60 points in 82 games last season.
