Everyone is loving Bat Kid, as they should; Hockey Players included

Sure it has nothing to do with hockey, but today was one for the emotional record books — San Francisco became Gotham City for one 5-year-old boy and his Make-a-Wish dream to be Bat Kid. The story has engulfed the country as everyone stopped to watch the live video stream on the days events. A good resource for photos and everything Bat Kid can be found here.
If you need a hockey tie-in, quite a few players across the leagues got in on the #BatKid action today, following the young super hero’s day saving Gotham City.
Well done @SFWish This is one of the greatest things I've ever seen #SFBatKid pic.twitter.com/nHuYa1hUVz

The city of San Francisco coming together for Batkid is amazing. Just no chance of looking at all these picture and not smiling.
