Long before Will Borgen became one of the anchors on the New York Rangers blue line, he was a three-year-old on a family ski trip in Montana. While his parents, Bill and Lori, hit the slopes, Will stayed behind with a family member who took him ice skating for the very first time.
“I’ll never forget it,” Bill chuckled. “We left him with a relative of Lori’s and she took him skating, and he loved it. When we got back home, we put him in skating lessons. I remember him standing up and falling down, and all these kids were coming off the ice in tears — but Will came off talking about how good he was.
