Not everyone saw an issue, though. Many fans jumped to Allen’s defense, saying the moment was harmless and on-brand for the quarterback. “This is exactly what everyone should expect from him,” someone said. “He is a guys guy. What’s wrong with him enjoying his time outside of the 1000’s of hours he has spent working on his craft.”

“How do they know it’s a beer, though? There’s nothing wrong with that lmao…” another wrote as someone else pointed out, “From a kid’s perspective, that drink doesn’t look any different from an energy drink.”

Meanwhile, one X user wanted to know, “What exactly is the terrible behavior being shown to kids here? A 30-year-old man drinking a beer? Jumping?”

Bruins Bounce Back, Even Series With Game 2 Win

Boston Bruins responded to their first loss in a big way by defeating the Buffalo Sabres 4-2 in Game 2 to even their Eastern Conference first-round series at 1-1.

After letting a late lead slip in Game 1, Boston came out aggressive, scoring four goals in the first 41 minutes. Viktor Arvidsson led the charge with two goals, while Pavel Zacha and Morgan Geekie also found the net, with Geekie tallying his second of the postseason.

Between the pipes, Jeremy Swayman delivered a strong performance with 34 saves, recording two scoreless periods to help secure the win. “The series doesn’t start until you win one on the road. And that’s important for us,” Swayman told ESPN after the game.

He added, “We thought we had a really good chance to finish it out last game, too. So, I think that we fixed a lot of great things and took positives and really stayed in the moment. That’s the biggest thing for our group.”

Bruins Break It Open After Physical Start

The opening period was a gritty, back-and-forth battle, filled with penalties and a few missed calls that had players cycling through the penalty box and coaches visibly frustrated behind the bench. Despite the physical play, neither team managed to find the back of the net, ending the first 20 minutes scoreless.

Then, the Boston Bruins flipped the switch. Viktor Arvidsson got things started with a backhander that slipped past Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen to break the deadlock. Moments later, the Bruins caught a lucky bounce when Morgan Geekie sent a long-range floater from center ice that Luukkonen misjudged, allowing it to sneak into the net.

When Tage Thompson was called for interference late in the period, Pavel Zacha capitalized, extending the lead to 3-0. Arvidsson added his second goal just a minute into the third period, sealing Boston’s dominant stretch.

The Bruins ultimately came out on top, winning 4-2. Game 3 is set for Thursday in Boston as the series shifts locations.
