Josh Bailey and the New York Islanders are cruising through their first-round series against the Pittsburgh Penguins, and the 29-year-old forward is winning over his most adorable fan.

During a 2016 contest, Bailey gifted Hudson, a young Islanders supporter, with a puck in his first game in attendance. Although Hudson was a mere infant at the time, the gesture resonated forever and he paid Bailey back with a song that will melt even the most jaded of hearts.

Bailey notched a goal in both Game 1 and 2 of New York’s first-round series, and the Islanders went up 3-0 in the series against the Penguins with a 4-1 victory Sunday.

Way to go, kiddo!
