Patrick Maroon had a night he’ll never forget Tuesday as he netted the game-winner in double overtime to lead his hometown team, the St. Louis Blues, to a Game 7 win and a trip to the Western Conference Finals.
Being from St. Louis just has to make that even more incredible.
But it’s also awesome that his young son Anthony was there and he was brought to tears after seeing his dad score the game-winner.
A few years ago it was Maroon who was brought to tears in a video that went viral in which he broke down in tears talking about how his son was in the building to see him score a goal. Maroon was with the Edmonton Oilers then and didn’t get to see his son often. He scored that night against the Blues in St. Louis.
Now they’re together in his hometown and his son’s reaction was so great:
The two got to celebrate together in the locker room:
And here’s the video from a few years ago, which is still great:
You gotta love sports.
