Oiler fan here wondering how Coyle has played lately. I noticed he has only three points in his last 10 games. He is a terrific prospect so this surprised me.

He's still been great on the PK, along the boards, etc. He is missing Granlund to feed him in front of the net. However, and I have said this again, he plays an NHL game. He plays a simple game, making little mistakes, and relies on the cycle. In other words, I think his game will be even better at the next level because guys will cycle better will be in the right spot more regularly.
