Canadiens invite young fan to upcoming game on Saturday night

On Saturday night, Nick Suzuki went to throw a puck to a young fan during warmups, only to have the fan miss the catch and take the puck to his face. Fortunately, all was okay, and Suzuki made sure to not only take a photo with the young boy, but give him a stick as well.

Unfortunately, arena staff at the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto forced the fan along with dad out of the building, as they were not allowed to be seated with the stick. Shortly after learning that they were forced to leave the game, the Canadiens reached out to the father and now, according to Sportsnet's Kyle Bukauskas, have invited them to a game next Saturday that will come against the Washington Capitals.

What started as a very classy gesture has now turned into a very nice move from the Canadiens organization as a whole. Now, the young fan will not only have a Suzuki stick to hold on to, but he will be able to watch his favorite team in action as well, something he was not able to do this past Saturday. Good on the Habs for making this happen.
