Boston Bruins forward Brad Marchand pulled off a classy move Saturday night for a young kid.
Prior to the 3-2 loss to the Capitals, a young fan in the stands was hit by a puck during warmups, and Marchand didn’t let her go home empty handed. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)
He signed a stick for her and had somebody give it to her. Watch the awesome moment below.

This is the kind of stuff that we love to see from pro athletes. Obviously, getting hit by a puck isn’t an experience anyone wants to go through.
Hockey pucks are heavy, and they can hurt like all hell when you get hit.
Yet, if you’re going to get drilled, you might as well leave the arena with a signed stick. At the very least, you have a great story to tell everyone.
Props to Marchand for taking care of this young fan after she was unfortunately hit by a puck.
