Flyers take care of Penguins-hating young fan who dissed Crosby jersey

Published Jan. 7, 2015 1:07 p.m. ET

The Philadelphia Flyers have long been known as the Broad Street Bullies. But the tough hockey club showed off their softer City of Brotherly Love side in appreciation for die-hard fan Kohlsen Fisher, who wanted no part of a Sidney Crosby jersey as a Christmas gift.

The jersey was purchased by mistake and the adults decided to have fun with it. They gifted him Penguins superstar Crosby's jersey as a joke, and Fisher's subsequent disgust has since turned into somewhat of an Internet sensation.

Apparently some Flyers got wind of this young fan's loyalty. Fast forward to this week and a package Fisher received at home.

Inside was an autographed Claude Giroux jersey, other team souvenirs and . . . word that he would be attending the Bruins-Flyers game on Saturday and get a chance to meet Giroux.

The reaction, once again, is priceless.
