Hockey Player Whose Family Was Targeted By Deranged Trans Dad Just Had the 'Greatest Moment' of His Life

Last February, tragedy struck Pawtucket, Rhode Island, when a deranged transgender, ‘Roberta Dorgano,’ targeted his family during a hockey game. ‘Dorgano’ targeted his ex-wife and son. The grandfather was also killed, with the shooter committing suicide after his senseless attack.

Yet, with tragedy comes resilience, and the shooter’s son, Colin Dorgan, showed that last night, sending his team to the Rhode Island Division II hockey final with this overtime goal (via ESPN):

We witnessed one of the most amazing moments you'll ever see at a high school event tonight at Schneider Arena.

The hockey player who lost three family members in a mass shooting at a Rhode Island rink last month played the role of hero for his team Wednesday night.
Senior Colin Dorgan scored on a breakaway in double overtime, lifting Blackstone Valley Co-op to a 3-2 victory over Portsmouth and advancing into the Rhode Island Division 2 hockey final.
"Greatest moment of my life," Dorgan told WPRI TV after his goal sent teammates pouring onto the ice in celebration and fans at Schneider Arena in Providence roaring with applause.
A month earlier, Dorgan's brother, mother and grandfather were killed when a shooter, identified as Robert Dorgan, opened fire on spectators at Dennis M. Lynch Arena in Pawtucket, Rhode Island, during Blackstone Valley's senior day game. Officials have said the shooter, who died of a self-inflicted gun wound, was specifically targeting family members.
