Reflecting on a favorite memory, Coyle recounted meeting the young Bergeron when he was just 12 years old. Bergeron's genuine kindness left a lasting impression on the young Coyle, fostering admiration for the six-time Selke winner.
In the heartfelt "Brothers for Life" tribute video, Coyle expressed deep admiration for Bergeron as both a fan and a teammate, acknowledging the privilege of playing alongside him.
Coyle's appreciation for Bergeron extended to a social media post, where he reiterated his respect and gratitude for his former teammate.
Since joining the Bruins in 2019, Coyle overcame initial challenges to become an instrumental part of the team during their Stanley Cup quest, amassing 16 points in the postseason. Now, as the Bruins embark on their centennial season without Bergeron, Coyle's role in the lineup is set to grow.
Filling Bergeron's shoes will be a collective effort as the Bruins honor the legacy of their beloved center, and Coyle's continued growth within the veteran group will undoubtedly play a pivotal role in the team's future.
