Chicago Blackhawks Give Blind Girl The Greatest Day Of Her Life

The Blackhawks Just Give A Blind Girl The Greatest Day Of Her Life
|

The Chicago Blackhawks just gave a blind girl the "best day" of her life.

A video posted by the team on Thursday tells the story of 16-year-old Christina DeVries, who has been blind since birth.

One day, she heard a team ad on TV asking fans, "What's Your Goal?"

Hers was simple: sit in the stands for a Blackhawks game at the United Center.

DeVries was greeted at ice level by none other than 'Hawks forward Patrick Sharp. And when she attended the game, she had a chance to sit in the broadcasting booth.

"This is the best day of my life," she said.

Hockey players may be brutes on the ice, but they certainly know how to warm our hearts off of it.
