    The St Louis Blues deserved to win! They made other fans and people in life that no matter how far behind you are, don't give up! Get up, work smart, push hard and chase the dream (the cup).

    Watching this again just made me cry again--been a Blues fan from the start,was her age when i saw my first Blues game in 1968 and this is the most inspirational story in Blues History,tied in with them winning the Cup--She truly inspired a hockey team and an entire fan base-Go Laila Anderson,hope you have a long and happy life.

  • @katarinayoung4680

    I firmly believe that Laila was an integral part of the Blues winning the Stanley Cup. When a child who's beat her battle with a life-threatening disease says "I've won, my battle, now you win yours," you have no option but to win. Laila wasn't just a miracle story - she touched the hearts of our entire city. Those boys have all credited Laila too....but that's what hockey players do. They never take personal credit for a victory.

    This is for Laila. This is for St. Louis. This is for Blues Nation. I'm damn proud of what our boys and that little girl did to get us a Cup! She better be on the ice on Opening Night when that banner goes to the rafters at Enterprise. This journey isn't over until they rip the Cup from our hands!

    I'm not even a hockey fan(football and basketball are my cup of tea) and this made me so emotional 🥺 back in 2015 I signed up to be a bone marrow donor and a few weeks ago, I got a call that I'm a match with someone 💙 So that's what brought me to this video, I'll know within 60 days if the patient moves forward and decides to receive the transplant. I am excited to save someone's life

    Laila Anderson and Liam Fitzgerald (the Bruins' #1 superkid) are the real winners of the 2019 Stanley Cup Final. These two deserve to have their names on the Stanley Cup, Liam for '11, and Laila for '19.
