Charles "Charlie" Coyle (born March 2, 1992 in Weymouth , Massachusetts ) is an American ice hockey player who has been under contract with the Boston Bruins from the National Hockey League since February 2019 and plays for them on the position of the center .

Career

The American offensive player was initially active from 2007 to 2009 for the ice hockey team of the Thayer Academy in the high school league system of the United States. Then the right-handed shooter spent a season in the jersey of the South Shore Kings , for which Coyle ran up in the lower-class US junior league Eastern Junior Hockey League . He finished the 2009/10 season with a record of 63 points in 42 regular season matches and was the fifth best scorer in the league. In addition, Coyle was named Rookie of the Year of the Eastern Junior Hockey League and was available for the NHL Entry Draft 2010 , in which the San Jose Sharks selected him in the first round in a total of 28th position. As a result, the striker decided to work at Boston University and went on the ice for their ice hockey team, the Terriers , in Hockey East . In his debut season he was the fourth-best points collector within the team and at the end of the season, in addition to being elected to the league's all-rookie team, he was also honored with the award as the best new player of the year.

On June 24, 2011, the San Jose Sharks transferred his rights together with Devin Setoguchi and a first-round vote in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft in exchange for Brent Burns and a second-round vote in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft to the Minnesota Wild . After Coyle had also started the 2011/12 season in the Boston University team, he left the university team in December 2011 to start his career with the Saint John Sea Dogs in the Ligue de hockey junior after the U20 Junior World Championship in 2012 in January 2012 majeur du Québec .

The American immediately fitted in perfectly and quickly became a central part of the team. In early March 2012, he signed a three-year entry - level contract with the Minnesota Wild. At the start of the playoffs of the 2011/12 season in March 2012, the right-handed shooter scored a hat trick in the game against the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles and a total of six points for a 13: 4 win. In the team's history, none of the Saint John Sea Dogs players had previously managed to score six points in a playoff game. A day later, the American was again successful with a hat trick against the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles.

With the beginning of the 2012/13 season Coyle joined the organization of the Minnesota Wild and spent the debut season in equal parts in the NHL and AHL , with the Houston Eros . In the 2013/14 season, the attacker was able to establish himself in the Wild NHL squad. In February 2017, Coyle played his 284th game in a row with the Wild, setting a new franchise record . Another two years with the team from Minnesota followed, before he transferred  to the Boston Bruins in February 2019 - after almost seven years in the service of the franchise . In return, Minnesota received Ryan Donato and a conditional five-round vote in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft , which can become a four-round pick if Boston reaches the second round of the 2019 Stanley Cup playoffs with Coyle . The latter was fulfilled because the Bruins moved into the final, but were subject to the St. Louis Blues there . Coyle then signed a new six-year contract in Boston in November 2019, which is expected to earn him an average annual salary of $ 5.25 million from the start of the 2020/21 season.

International

Coyle represented the US national team at the U20 World Junior Championships in 2011 and 2012 . In both tournaments, the offensive player was one of the most successful points collectors in his home country; In 2011 the bronze medal was also won. In 2015 he also made his senior debut and won the bronze medal at the World Championships .
