Vladimir Tarasenko had a few extra guests at his postgame press conference on Saturday.
After a 5-1 victory against the Chicago Blackhawks at Enterprise Center, the St. Louis Blues forward was joined on the podium by what he jokingly called his "support team for the interview."
Tarasenko and his wife, Yana have three children: Mark, Aleksandr and Artem. Two made an appearance with their dad as he answered questions from reporters. The faces of everyone involved lit up the room. And there was some definite video-bombing happening at one point.
And the Tarasenko kids weren't the only happy ones in the building. A young fan who was gifted Tarasenko's stick after the game was moved to tears of joy.
