We finally have an explanation for Brandon Tanev’s wild head shot for the 2020-21 season.

It appears as though Tanner saw a ghost right before the photo was taken and as it turns out... he actually did! Or so he claims. Weeks after going viral, the 29-year-old finally addressed  the picture seen across the hockey world and wow, did he ever deliver with his answer.

We’ll say no more.

 

It all makes so much sense now! And would you look at that, Brandon’s brother and Calgary Flames defenceman Chris Tanev was right all along.

 

We’ve gotta say, Tanner isn’t the only player with a… different(?) head shot this season. Jack Eichel looks like a whole of people in his…

 

Hockey players… buncha squids.
