Charlie Coyle is using a Super Eight tournament loss as Stanley Cup motivation

Charlie Coyle played his first-ever Stanley Cup Final game Monday when he took the ice with the Bruins against the Blues at TD Garden.

Before all the Stanley Cup mania started, though, Coyle penned an article for The Players’ Tribune about his most notable accomplishment in hockey: playing in the Super Eight tournament as a high school freshman in 2007.

"Boston is in my blood. Boston raised me. This place is my home."

Tonight @CharlieCoyle_3, a lifelong @NHLBruins fan from Weymouth, Mass., will take the ice for Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final representing his hometown team.
