Coyle tied it 2-2 with a power-play goal at 15:22 of the second, tapping in Brad Marchand’s cross-crease pass.
“[Coyle is] going to the net, putting his stick down on the ice and he’s scored a good amount of goals like that,” DeBrusk said. “It’s one of those things where as a centerman, it’s a tough task going against the top lines, and it’s been a pleasure to be riding shotgun with him for the last good stretch here.”
Coyle then gave the Bruins a 3-2 lead at 1:08 of the third period, skating in and shooting under the crossbar.
John Beecher made it 4-2 at 3:45, scoring on his own rebound in front, and DeBrusk pushed it to 5-2 at 4:04 by tucking the puck in at the right post.
“I’m just happy to get on the board,” Beecher said. “Just trying to help the team win any way I can, and it always feels good to put one in the back of the net.”
