Ryan Callahan lacing up his son's skates for the first time will put a smile on your face



Over one year ago Ryan Callahan was diagnosed with degenerative disc disease and was placed on long-term injured reserve, ultimately putting an end to his NHL career after 13 seasons.

Now the 34-year-old is dedicating most of his time to the Ryan Callahan Foundation and his family, and he recently got his son, Dominick, his first pair of skates. On Sunday, the 127th overall pick in the 2004 NHL Entry Draft laced up his son’s skates for the first time and the moment was adorable.

This video should put a smile on every single hockey fan’s face, especially the moment when the youngster says ‘hockey’ while his father laces up the skates.



The weekend might be over but at least you have this video to watch on repeat to start your week on a bright note.
