Avalanche's latest acquisition already on the trade block according to NHL insider

Coyle made an immediate impression when the Boston Bruins picked him up in February 2019, playing a key role in their run to the Stanley Cup Final.

Daniel Lucente from Yardbarker from writes that positioned on the third line behind Brock Nelson and Nathan MacKinnon, he added valuable depth, veteran experience, and athleticism to an already stacked lineup.

The Weymouth, Mass., native came within a single win of capturing hockey's ultimate prize, falling in Game 7 to the St. Louis Blues. Years later, Coyle earned a second shot at glory, this time with the Avalanche.

Things didn't go an planned however. While Coyle was initially seen as a seamless addition on and off the ice, the Avalanche's early playoff exit has raised questions about his long-term place in Denver.

NHL insider Frank Seravalli recently questioned whether Coyle's playing style truly aligns with Colorado's system.

While Coyle added size and physicality, Seravalli questioned whether his fit within the Avalanche's fast-paced, high-tempo style was as seamless as initially believed.

As Colorado evaluates its roster moving forward, it's unclear whether Coyle remains part of their long-term plans or could be on the move again.

We'll have to wait and see what progresses throughout the offseason.
