While his BFF with the Capitals was in Maryland watching horsies race, Andre Burakovsky was in Sweden at one of his other close friends’ birthday parties.
Saturday, hockey player Calle Andersson celebrated turning 25 with his family and friends. Burakovsky and Andersson were teammates with the Malmö Redhawks and grew up together in Malmö’s youth system.
Seb Mollden, Burakovsky’s soon-to-be brother-in-law, snapped a very good photo of Andre holding a baby at the party.

It’s good to see Andre taking baby holding so seriously. He needs to get as much practice in as possible because his sister Alexandra is pregnant and he’s soon going to be Uncle Andre.
While at the party, Burakovsky also played a stirring game of musical chairs. He’s at the top left of the screen and manages to snag a chair at the last moment. Big Game Burakovsky’s at it again.
Since the Capitals lost in the first round to the Carolina Hurricanes, Burakovsky returned home to being training for next season and play lots of golf.
