Blues' Vladimir Tarasenko surprises child fighting cancer with amazing present

St. Louis Blues winger Vladimir Tarasenko surprised a young fan with the birthday present of a lifetime.

Arianna Dougan is a Blues fan who was just 3 years old when she was diagnosed with neuroblastoma, a rare form of childhood cancer. Arianna has overcome the cancer multiple times but it has returned once again, and she is currently undergoing treatment.

She celebrated her 11th birthday on Saturday and received an incredible present from her favorite hockey team.

The Blues held a live auction last week and offered an opportunity for a fan to travel with the team on a road trip to Phoenix and Denver in late March.
