We mentioned it earlier today, but the Montreal Canadiens players were officially on the ice today, live from Brossard, for an informal practice.
It's starting to feel like hockey season and the onset of the 2023 training camp!
Notably present were Jake Allen, Arber Xhekaj, Cole Caufield, Nick Suzuki, Kirby Dach, and many more.
However, there was a surprise guest! See for yourself:
We love it! Byron appears to be some sort of guest coach.
You can guess that this won't quell the rumors about his potential role within the organization, but for now, let's just say we're happy to see him on the ice.
