'Game Of Thrones' is all the rage right now. It's the final season and everyone watches the show, including athletes from across the sports world. The two worlds intertwine a lot more than you would think and we saw that again Thursday night.

During Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Final between Boston and Carolina, the Night King made a shocking return, much to the delight of the fans in attendance.

With the Night King in attendance, the Bruins were able to take Game 1 with a 5-2 win, but in a shocking turn of events, apparently the GOT character didn't win fan of the night.

Brutal couple of weeks for him.

You hate to see it. A rough couple of weeks for the Night King, but a really good month for the Bruins as they're now three wins away from a Stanley Cup Final berth for the first time since the 2012/13 season.
