The Boston Bruins still have a gaping hole at the second-line right wing spot next to David Krejci. Coach Bruce Cassidy tried to plug the hole with a few different options so far this year, but nobody stuck. The most recent choice at right wing was Charlie Coyle.
Coyle suited up for all 34 games this year, mostly at center. He typically plays as the third-line center when everybody’s healthy, but he bumped up to the second line in Patrice Bergeron‘s absence.
At times, however, Cassidy moved Coyle to the second-line right wing position.
