Boston Bruins defenseman Brandon Carlo missed the morning skate for the birth of his second child but made it back in time to score a goal in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference second-round series against the Florida Panthers.
Brandon Carlo, the Boston Bruins defenseman, was a no-show at Monday’s morning skate. Why, you ask? Well, he was in a pretty important place – by his wife, Mayson’s side. They just welcomed their second kid, Crew, into the world.
But don’t think Carlo let his team down. Nope. He hopped on a flight right after and made it to Sunrise, Florida, with time to spare. Just in time for Game 1 of the Bruins’ Eastern Conference second-round series. They were facing off against the Florida Panthers.
And get this – he didn’t just show up. He made his presence known. Carlo scored a goal. How’s that for a day’s work?
