Watch 21,000 Teddy Bears Hit The Ice At A Holiday Hockey Event [VIDEO]

When you think of hockey here you think Detroit Red Wings and Squid on the ice right? The Calgary Hitmen have a much more cuddly tradition.

Once a year, for the past nearly two decades, the WHL franchise has fans throw teddy bears on the ice when the team scores their first goal. The stuffed animals are then given to needy children.

How cool is that. Watch the Teddy Bears fly.
