Brandon Carlo used to be the tallest player on his team. When the 6-foot-5 defenceman would head out to the ice, the process was as simple as taking the tallest stick from the stick rack. Now, it requires a bit more notice. Carlo's defence partner these days, standing at 6-foot-9, happens to have a few inches on him. "Now, I come and I look at all the stick racks, and my sticks, I can rarely find them because they look the same size as everybody else's compared next to his," Carlo laughed. "It's pretty crazy." Everything these days is pretty crazy for the young blueliner, who has spent his first days in the NHL being paired with Bruins Captain Zdeno Chara.
All of Boston's offense came from its first defence pairing, as Charlie McAvoy kicked off the scoring with a stellar individual effort in the first period, while Zdeno Chára grabbed the winner with a slapper from the point late in the second.
