Alex Killorn is going viral on Hockey Twitter for a video he published on his Twitter and YouTube accounts.
Set to the Boys Are Back In Town by Thin Lizzy, Killorn finds his teammates doing odd jobs around Tampa Bay.
“The moment @NHL says you can skate again! #boltsflytogether #directorialdebut #breakoutinfluenceroftheyear,” Killorn tweeted.

For Washington Capitals defenseman Michal Kempny, that’s longtime girlfriend Nicola Minarikova.
Nicola, a native of Prague, Czech Republic, has long been passionate about interior design but with the world struggling in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, she wondered how she could do more and make a real difference.

The Caps are in partly cloudy, 72-degree Tampa today for the first game of their mentors’ trip (pictured above), hosted by the Tampa Bay Lightning, who are in a weird situation. Last year’s regular-season dominators, the Lightning of 2019-20 are ambling along outside the playoff window at the moment. They will be highly motivated to win this one.
