VIRAL VIDEO: Hockey player makes kid's day

Friday, April 25, 2014


It's one of the most exhilarating moments in a young sports fan's life.

You're waiting by the sidelines or the path to the locker room. You make yourself as tall as possible, screaming your favorite player's name, hoping your
little heart out that you'll get some type of acknowledgement: a smile, a handshake, maybe even a coveted game ball.

But hockey player Jordin Tootoo did even more than that: He handed a little boy his hockey stick and said, "That's all yours."

Watch the exchange go from sweet to positively precious.
