Canadiens get weird during 2022-23 Media Day Livestream

MONTREAL - The Internet can be a strange place, and the Canadiens seemingly embraced that ethos during the team's 2022-23 Media Day Livestream on September 22.

Nearly 8,000 fans spent the day on Twitch with host Kevin Raphael to witness a panoply of unscripted and often zany behind-the-scenes content.
Training camp is serious business, but the Habs got to enjoy a break from their busy schedules by popping by Raphael's studio to play video games, real-life mini golf, and more.
Things kicked things off on a musical note with captain Nick Suzuki, who displayed his ukulele-playing skills - or lack thereof - just a month after

.

Players entered their details into a nickname generator... to varying results. Hopefully Juraj Slafkovsky's new moniker sticks.

Kirby Dach, however, prefers the classic "Dacher" over any references to a certain hungry pink hero.

For others, it was an opportunity to humble brag.
Alternate captain Brendan Gallagher shared an anecdote about a record-setting Christmas tree toss in 2016. Weird flex but ok.

Cole Caufield dished on his favorite character from the TV show One Tree Hill. Yes, The CC watches The CW.

And a highly-scientific lie detector test was administered on alternate captain and self-proclaimed fibber Joel Edmundson.
