Jim Montgomery Breaks The Silence On Trading This Defenceman
Celebrating his 500th NHL game during Thursday night's faceoff against the San Jose Sharks at TD Garden, Boston Bruins defenseman Brandon Carlo showcased his enduring presence on the team.
Defying earlier trade rumors that surrounded him earlier in the year, Carlo made a resounding statement with his inaugural goal of the season in the following game, aiding Boston's triumph over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday.
"He's one of the players we know what we're gonna get out of effort-wise, execution-wise, shutting plays and killing plays defensively."
With 25 goals and 67 assists in his career, Carlo's versatility has not gone unnoticed. Head coach Jim Montgomery, expressing unwavering faith and trust in Carlo, praised his consistent efforts in execution, defensive plays, and play disruption.
As the Bruins gear up for their second home game against the Sabres on Thursday at 7 p.m. ET at TD Garden, it appears Carlo's place on the team is secure.
