Backstrom gives puck to a young fan, his reaction is unforgettable.
NBC Sports

A young fan of the National Hockey League got a special surprise on Sunday night, and boy was he ever happy about it. 

The young fan was in attendance to watch his favorite team, the Washington Capitals, and he was already very happy when his home team took a 4 - 3 victory over a very tough St. Louis Blues squad, but things were about to get better.

During the three stars ceremony the name of Capitals veteran forward Nicklas Backstrom was announced, and when Backstrom came out he came with a special puck in hand for one lucky fan. 

The young man didn't catch the puck himself, but an older gentleman who we presume was his father quickly gave the puck to him, causing him to literally roar with joy.

That's the kind of fanaticism you expect to see from a young, die hard, hockey fan.
