NHL Should Do the Teddy Bear Toss

This time of year around various hockey leagues, teams participate in the Teddy Bear Toss, where fans are encouraged to bring teddy bears to games and toss them onto the ice once the home team scores its first goal. The teddy bears go to a local charity to be distributed to kids for the holidays.

This event is usually a staple for hockey teams as it allows fans to come and enjoy the game while directly helping their local community. The players seem to love it too.

As the video above shows, the moment all the bears flying onto the ice can be quite a site.
