HALIFAX: Blake Brien thought he was going to just another Quebec Maritime Junior Hockey League game featuring his favourite Halifax Mooseheads hosting the Saint John Sea Dogs at the Scotiabank Centre in Halifax on Feb. 8.
Little did he know about the surprise that would await him.
Blake is a wish kid living with Cystic Fibrosis, and had asked to be a Toronto Maple Leaf for a day as his wish.
Well, that became reality at the Mooseheads game.
