BRANDON — Whether you plan for a month or throw a costume together last minute, there's something fun about Halloween.
Hockey is no different. Most teams, in the NHL and minor leagues, host parties and fans watch #hockeyhalloween to see their favorite players' costumes. The Lightning schedule doesn't have an opportunity for a party this year (the team doesn't even have consecutive days off at home from Oct.16 through Dec. 11), but they typically host one.
"Being in a group of guys, so closely-knit all year, to have a party or a night when you can be creative and show a different side of yourself, it's pretty neat," defenseman Braydon Coburn said.
