Breaking: Firefighters have come to the rescue of hockey fans in Ottawa! These guys are heroes!

Firefighters are normally the heroic sort but today they went above and beyond the call of duty.

With several Ottawa residents without power, and with Hydro Ottawa altering their customers that it could be until 1:30 AM EST before the power was restored, local firefighters came to the rescue.

Firefighters arrived on the scene at a local bar called "The Pump," and with The Pump having no power they set up a generator to power the televisions inside the bar, allowing fans a place to watch the game.



This is clearly not something that they were forced to do, and it's terrific to see them go out of their way to help out fellow hockey fans in need. We salute each and everyone of those who made this possible.
