Ghost-face legacy went to affect from NHL to NFL

Dallas went with the look that made Brandon’s picture a sensational one, as per nhl.com. In the picture, Brandon raised his eyebrows in surprise and later explained that it was because he saw a ghost during the shoot.

After being with the Pittsburg Penguins, he got drafted by the Seattle Kraken in the 2021 NHL Draft, but his epic expression still remained. He carried on the legacy to his new team. After he left the team, his Penguins teammate Kasperi Kapanen continued with the seeing-of-a-ghost face thing.
