Morning Skate: Paddles

Welcome to Tuesday, folks!

While the Bruins won’t be competing on the ice today, they’ll still be competing — albeit in a different sport.

The Bruins and 98.5 The Sports Hub’s Pucks & Paddles fundraiser is this afternoon at Boston’s House of Blues, an event that raises a bunch of money for Special Olympics Massachusetts.

The event is always gold for photos and other interactions, as it pits Bruins, Sports Hub people, and winning bidders against one another in a giant ping pong tournament.

What’s not to like?

Elsewhere, Dmitry Orlov capped off his initial run-in with the Bruin with a nice feather in his cap yesterday, being named the league’s First Star of the Week.
