Elliot's Wish to Attend an LA Kings Game Comes True

Elliot Peracchia, age 12, became part of the Make-A-Wish family after he was diagnosed with a Congenital Heart Defect.
Make-A-Wish is a non-profit that sets out to grant the wish of every child diagnosed with a critical illness, with the belief that a wish can chage the life of the child they serve.

Elliot's wish to "go to an LA Kings game" was recently fulfilled on March 15 when he traveled from Toronto, Canada to Los Angeles, California to see an LA Kings practice and attend a game!

Elliot watched the Kings practice before meeting some of his favorite players!

One player in particular stole his heart, cc: Anze Kopitar.

Kopitar gave him a tour of the Kings locker room, where Elliot had his very own stall!

He joined the captain for lunch in the player's lounge before picking up a few sweet signed sticks.

The following day, Elliot headed to STAPLES Center and had breakfast in the Lexus club before joining Kopitar on the ice for the anthem.
Talk about a once in a lifetime experience!
