Bobby Segin goes from selling Florida Panthers tickets to being their backup goalie

Bobby Segin was walking around the BB&T Center as he does on most Florida Panthers game nights when he received a call on Friday.

A ticket sales account manager for the Panthers, Segin also serves as the team’s unofficial emergency goaltender.

On Friday night, he became their official backup.

Segin was called in from the ticket office to the locker room on Friday night after Roberto Luongo had some sort of malady that forced him to not only miss his start against the Nashville Predators, but not even be able to serve as backup to James Reimer.
