"Whenever you have a chance to work with kids, especially when they're so fresh to the game of hockey, it's so encouraging to see the excitement in their eyes and the smiles, especially for kids who potentially would have never gotten into the sport," Vitale said.
Now equipped with a basic understanding of hockey, and after a visit from Louie, the kids were escorted to their seats to enjoy their first Blues game! After grabbing snacks and settling in, the kids were eager to see the players, the action, and of course, the Olympia.
The excitement and the night culminated in an 8-3 win for the Blues, and for these young Blues fans, they went home happy and with memories that will last a lifetime.
