Week 1 Winner is: Sue Kelly – Hockey Mom from the RI Saints U14 team
Sue was nominated by her husband, Don, who wrote: “My wife, Sue, is the ultimate hockey mom. Our son, Andy, developed an Autoimmune disorder called Alopecia which caused him to lose all his hair. He gave up all sports and became depressed. Sue encouraged him to try hockey since he could wear a helmet and no one would see him being bald. He tried it and loved it and got really good thanks to her support. Hockey helped change his life thanks to Sue. One year later he broke his collarbone badly playing hockey and Sue, who is a physical therapist, helped him recover from surgery to get him back on the ice and play again. His team went on to win the championship! Sue is an amazing hockey mom and my son’s biggest fan! Even better, not only his confidence grew thru hockey, but his hair grew back too. Sue gets:

He never misses a game and he is our son’s biggest fan. This weekend he took naps in the car to make sure my son got back and forth to all the state tournament games. The pure joy on his face when my son won States was amazing. He is selfless and does everything he can to make our son’s dreams come true.”

The Week 3 winner is: James Ogram- New England Knights Girls U12
He was nominated by his wife, Jessica, who wrote: “I’m nominating my husband James because he has been my daughter’s biggest fan and best coach since she started skating when she was 3 years old. I have watched him over the years encourage her and build her confidence, both on and off the ice. When she is down on herself, he lifts her up. When she needs advice, he is the first to give it to her. They have such a special bond over hockey. He has also taught our other girls how to skate and play hockey with such grace and patience. His love for hockey has brought our whole family closer together. He makes sure our girls know that they are fierce competitors and advocates wherever and however he can for girls’ hockey.”

The Week 4 winner is: Ashley Amaral from the Providence Hockey Club! Sandy Harper nominated her and wrote “Ashley is an amazing single Mom who lost her fiancé to a seizure disorder a few years ago. Ashley works so hard to provide for her two children who both love hockey and does all she can to keep up with their schedules. She always puts herself last and her Rylan & Zoey first without fail or question. This would mean so much to Ashley and Rylan who loves hockey, (sometimes more than life itself) and the Bruins more than anything. They are all so deserving, especially for the huge loss they’ve experienced and the love and dedication they have to each other. Rylan has been playing hockey since he was 3 years old and he is now almost 12 and his passion and love for the game have never faltered. Rylan is a goalie for the Providence youth hockey league and wears #40 for his idol Tuukka Rask. Rylan has received so many sportsmanship awards and is so appreciative of every player and coach alike. Rylan lost a championship game to their rivals and despite the loss, he made it a point to go to the champions’ locker room to congratulate the winning team. He is not only an amazing sportsman, but he is also an amazing human being. Ashley has raised two amazing, beautiful souls and has sacrificed so much. She is an amazing mom and deserves this more than you could imagine- they all do.” Thank you for your consideration and for making others smile.”
Ashley wins:
-4 Center-Ice Seats for the April 8 P-Bruins game
