Bruins captain Brad Marchand spoke to the media this week including how he feels about his linemate Charlie Coyle after their first season together.
Marchand said that he hopes to stay paired with Coyle this season as their chemistry on the ice is growing and it showed at the end of last season. He also added how Coyle really stepped up last year taking on the first line center role saying that he had been waiting for that role for a few years now.
«Yeah, I do expect to play with C's. I thought we came a long way last year and built some good chemistry. It's something we can continue to work on,» Marchand told reporters, per team-provided video. «The longer you get to play with someone, obviously, the more success you're going to have and the more familiar you're going to get with one another. Really looking forward to continuing that, continue to grow together and build something special.»
«It was awesome,» Marchand said. «He was ready for it. I think he was kinda chomping on the bit the last few years. I'm sure it's been tough on him, kinda sitting back there waiting to get his opportunity. He thrived.
Clearly Marchand is a fan of playing with Coyle after both had very productive seasons for the Bruins leading them to a disappointing second round appearance against the cup champions.
