Backes shared a heartwarming moment with Kuraly after he scored tying goal vs. Sens

A big reason why hockey fans love the playoffs is for the moments, expected or unexpected, happy or heartbreaking, that unfold during every game.

Sure, highlights like goals and saves are always going to mean that much more during the playoffs, but those aren't the only moments that go viral.

Take this moment from Thursday night, for example.

Now how awesome is that.  An entire arena yelling "sweep" at the top of their lungs to the beat of Queen's 'We Will Rock You.'

Or, how about this moment from Game 5 between the Senators and Bruins Friday night after Sean Kuraly scored his first career NHL goal in Boston's biggest game of the year to tie the game.

Heartwarming.  You can just tell how much that goal meant to both Kuraly and his teammates.

If that didn't make you smile inside, maybe the 24-year-old's immediate reaction after scoring will.

When you take into account that Kuraly was inserted into the lineup for Game 5 (his first career playoff game), it makes the story even better.
