Last night, the Oilers made an incredible gesture.

Before the game between the Oilers and the Sharks, 5-year old Ben Stelter, who is battling stage 4 brain cancer, was on the ice with his favourite player Connor McDavid and received a standing ovation from the fans in the arena.

Also, Zach Hyman brought him in front of the journalists, like a real player.
Ben Stelter was diagnosed with a brain tumour a year ago and underwent four rounds of chemotherapy and 30 sessions of radiation to remove it. Unfortunately, the tumour reappeared and he will have to through another session of radiation soon.
What a great night for this young fan.
