In an unexpected turn of events just hours before the Boston Bruins begin their second-round playoff series, defenseman Brandon Carlo has missed the trip to Florida. The reason? A joyous one—Carlo is celebrating the birth of his baby boy back home. This exciting personal milestone was the cause of his absence from this morning's practice, clearing up any concerns about his health or readiness.
Bruins' head coach Jim Montgomery shared the news and expressed hope that Carlo could still make it to tonight's game against the Florida Panthers. His presence on the ice would certainly boost the team's defense, which is crucial for their success in this round.
As the Bruins prepare for a challenging game, the team and fans alike are sending their best wishes to Carlo and his growing family. The possibility of Carlo playing tonight remains uncertain, but his new role as a father marks a significant and joyful milestone.
