Sergei Bobrovsky's place is beginning to look a lot like Christmas. Mostly because he recently cut down a giant tree and hauled it back to his home.
Bobrovsky chronicled his first-ever Christmas tree acquisition on Twitter. He and Columbus Blue Jackets teammate Artemi Panarin went to Timbuk Farms in Granville, Ohio, at the suggestion of a few other Blue Jackets. Tweet from @SergeiBobrovsky: ������ pic.twitter.com/ezAzzMuNhE "There were so many trees. It was a fun day," Bobrovsky said. After originally joking (in Russian) about going for a massive, seemingly 30-foot tree, Bobrovsky grabbed his saw and took a ride in a sled to find the perfect Christmas centerpiece. "It was a big tree so it wasn't easy," Bobrovsky said. "I did it myself. It was the first time I've done that. It was cool. It's about eight feet. I carried it on my back (to the car)." The goalie eventually got it home. Tweet from @SergeiBobrovsky: ����� pic.twitter.com/xvNPhZEKUh Next up? Buying lights. Bobrovsky is going to need a whole lot of them.
