St. Louis Blues superfan Laila Anderson has been a source of inspiration to the team throughout the playoffs, and the players couldn’t have been happier to celebrate their success with her after Monday’s Game 4 victory over the Boston Bruins.

Anderson, a 10-year-old Blues supporter, is battling a rare disease called hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) but is fighting valiantly and Blues defenceman Colton Parayko emphatically greeted her upon securing the 4-2 win.

Parayko was thrilled to participate in an interview with Anderson as well, a mutually appreciative duo if there ever was one.

Anderson is truly remarkable and the Blues have served as a source of inspiration for her, while the club considers her a good luck charm. Here is a detailed feature on Anderson’s story, which is well worth your time.

The Blues are two wins away from lifting the Stanley Cup for the first time in franchise history and you have to figure that Anderson will deservedly be there every step of the way.
