Coleman shares photo montage he made for bubble life

Being away from home was hard for players in each Stanley Cup Playoff bubble, and Blake Coleman gave a glimpse at how he managed without his family.

The Tampa Bay Lightning forward shared the montage of himself and his daughter Charlie on Tuesday before he and the Stanley Cup champs returned home Tuesday.
Instagram from @bcoles25: I made this video in anticipation of going to the bubble and competing for the Stanley Cup, knowing we could be apart for a long time. I wanted something to remind me of our time together. It's been over two months and today I get to see my beautiful baby girl and we kept our promise and are coming home with the cup!
Coleman's wife Jordan gave birth to Charlie in February, and they bonded for about four months while the NHL was paused due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The montage, set to "The Man Who Loves You the Most" by Zac Brown Band, captured some of the cutest moments of their time together before he left first for the Eastern Conference bubble in Toronto in July before moving to Edmonton for the Eastern Conference Final and Stanley Cup Final.
But Blake was reunited with Jordan and Charlie after the Lightning clinched their second championship in team history with a 2-0 win against the Dallas Stars in Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final, and Charlie got an extra-special seat during the celebration.
