Little Girl Who Bawled Her Eyes Out After T.J. Oshie Trade Gets to Chat with Him

Libby Lu, the little girl who cried he eyes out after T.J. Oshie was traded, got to talk with Oshie on SportsCenter. It's adorable.

Libby Lu is an adorable little girl who loves T.J. Oshie and was devastated by the trade that sent Oshie from her hometown St. Louis Blues to the Washington Capitals. We know this because Libby's mom videotaped her bawling her eyes and uploaded it to YouTube, where it quickly went viral. While recording our own kids as they process the worst moments of their young lives remains one of the more cruel things we do as human beings, this story has a nice ending.

ESPN had Libby and her father on earlier today and arranged for Oshie to call into the show to talk to Libby. The look on her face when she realized she's talking to her favorite player is just wonderful. The first thing she wanted to know is whether he had a swimming pool and, follow up question: "do you have a diving board?" So, yeah, it's adorable.
