The St. Louis Blues put together one of the greatest comebacks in the history of sports last season as they went from dead last in the NHL at the start of 2019 and capped off the hockey season as Stanley Cup champions. No one will ever know what sparked the turnaround, but one of the key contributors was their good luck charm, Blues superfan Laila Anderson. Laila lives with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, a life-threatening condition where a patient’s immune system attacks the host’s tissues and organs. Now completed her treatment, she was able to enjoy every last moment of the Blues’ historic run. Less than 24 hours after the members of the Blues received their gorgeous Stanley Cup champions rings at a special event, Alexander Steen and Colton Parayko made a surprise visit to Laila’s home, where they gifted her a Stanley Cup champions ring of her own.

What a cool surprise for her. That was really nice of the St Louis Blues to do for her. I am still happy Tyler Bozak won the Cup. Wish it had been with us, but at least when he retires he will have won the top prize and have his name on the Cup.
