The Boston Bruins enjoyed a nice, and eventful, day off Friday.
Following Thursday’s victory over the New Jersey Devils, the B’s hopped on a plane down to Florida, where they’ll play the Panthers on Saturday and the Tampa Bay Lightning on Monday.
The Jacobs family, which owns the team and has property in Florida, hosted Bruins players and staff for a day out in the sun. That visit resulted in a bunch of fascinating photos and videos.
First, they got to play with horses.

Then, they rode dirt bikes.

Even head coach Bruce Cassidy hopped on a bike, which really is a sight to see.

Fans also were treated to this video of defenseman Steven Kampfer trying to save par, all in the typical golf course attire of jeans and a t-shirt.

All in all, seems like it was a pretty good day for the Bruins in the Sunshine State.
Not a bad afternoon in the Sunshine State. ☀️
