The Calgary Flames used their inaugural moms trip to drop the sweetest video montage ever.
The moms were treated to a video montage complete with throwback photos of each player and his mother, set to "My Hockey Mom (Tribute)" by Stompin' Tom Connors.

The heartwarming video was shown to the moms after they attended the Flames' pregame meeting in Las Vegas on Wednesday morning. Each player's segment had both a semi-recent photo and a throwback image of he and his mother. The montage starts with an incredible photo of forward Matthew Tkachuk in his dad's Phoenix Coyotes jersey along with his mom Chantal, then moves through each player until the photo of forward Mikael Backlund as a child giving his mom a kiss, all while the song played in the background.
