Anthony Duclair returned to the Arizona Coyotes earlier this month following a stint with the AHL's Tucson Roadrunners, and no one is happier to have him back than 4-year-old Gracie Hernandez.
During the Coyotes' open practice Thursday, Gracie got an opportunity to meet Duclair and share a letter she had written him.
According to Cristina Ledra of NHL.com, it read, "Dear Duke, I'm Gracie and I'm four. I love you! Are you happy to be back? Will you marry me?"
Duclair happily accepted.
Got engaged today 🙈💍 https://t.co/02Gb6WLQ0H
