Players often show up at events to help the community when it’s time to do so.
On Thursday evening, for example, players and staff were at the Casino de Montréal to raise funds for the Canadiens Children’s Foundation.

It’s fun for the team members, who get together outside of hockey to have fun and give back to the next guy.
In François-David Rouleau’s article on this subject, we understand that no fewer than 300 people were waiting for this event.

What’s really interesting about this event is that Nick Suzuki’s wife, Caitlin, came up with the idea.
A great initiative on Caitlin’s part.
Let’s hope this evening will give us good ideas for other events of this kind in the future.
