Perhaps it's my pregnancy hormones talking but this made me bawl my eyes out. It also helps that it was done at a hockey game being a big fan myself the video is worth it!

Sergeant First Class Robert Vandenberg Jr., has been serving his country in Afghanistan for the past 10 months. Vandenberg left his wife Patricia, their one-year-old son Robert, and newborn Travis.

Travis had never met his father, and the Anaheim Ducks decided to do something about that. During an intermission at Wednesdays game against Edmonton, the Ducks put Vandenberg on the jumbotron to Skype with his wife live in the arena. The Ducks cut the feed before the two could exchange words, and then Vandenberg emerged from inside a suite behind his wife.

It's not only the hormones... That story is tear-jerking material!
