BOSTON (AP) — Charlie Coyle scored a pair of third-period goals, stealing the spotlight from fellow Boston University product Macklin Celebrini in his first game back at the TD Garden as an NHLer and leading the Bruins to a 6-3 victory over San Jose on Monday.

After losing a pair of one-goal leads early, Coyle's handiwork delivered a needed victory and, at least temporarily, push Boston back into a playoff position.

Charlie Coyle scored the tying and winning goals in the third period as part of a three-point effort, helping the Boston Bruins surge past the visiting San Jose Sharks 6-3 on Monday afternoon.
