Somewhere hidden in the anarchy that eventually became the Calgary Flames' 8-1 thrashing of the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday night, there was a truly heartwarming moment.
After earning a penalty shot, Calgary Flames center Matt Stajan was awarded a moment of temporary joy when he made due on his opportunity and pointed to the sky.
The raw celebration was for his son, Emerson, who died shortly after birth earlier this month.
This goal was far more important than exploding water bottles, wet suits, and jerseys being thrown back into stands.
