BY ANDREA HOUSTON – Stop what you’re doing right now and watch this adorable video taken at Saturday’s Toronto Maple Leafs-Ottawa Senators game.

Christina dropped to one knee while holding Alicia’s hand. The fans roared. She slid the engagement ring on, they shared a kiss and the Senators mascot proudly raised a sign that read “SHE SAID YES.”


“The fans roared.”
