"Toronto Maple Leafs defenceman Brandon Carlo is ready to hit the ice against some familiar faces, and perhaps go beyond enemy lines. Toronto hosts the Boston Bruins on Saturday at Scotiabank Arena, and Carlo is excited to suit up against his former club. The towering defenceman spent parts of 10 seasons with the Bruins' organization, and now gets a chance to be on the other side of one of hockey's best rivalries."
"Carlo hasn't necessarily had the strongest starts to his Maple Leafs' tenure, but has shown flashes of brilliance when it comes to shutting down opponents in the defensive end. He's been primarily paired with Morgan Rielly since joining the Leafs, but some wonder if there's a better pairing out there for him as the duo haven't shown enough consistent chemistry throughout the first month of this season."
Brandon Carlo will face his former team, the Boston Bruins, when the Toronto Maple Leafs host them at Scotiabank Arena. Carlo spent parts of 10 seasons within the Bruins organization and welcomes the opportunity to play against familiar faces from daily practice. He maintains close friendships with several Bruins teammates and spent an off day catching up over dinner. Carlo has shown defensive flashes for the Maple Leafs despite an uneven start and has mostly been paired with Morgan Rielly. Questions remain about whether a different pairing might produce more consistent chemistry. The Maple Leafs traded significant assets to acquire Carlo last season.
