Montreal Canadiens fans got to see Pecs, Shootsy, KK, Gally and Tuna on the ice at Bell Centre on Tuesday.
The Canadiens sported nickname jerseys on the ice for warmups ahead of their game against the Ottawa Senators, which were auctioned off after the game for the Canadiens Foundation.

Each of the 23 Canadiens players wore a Bleu-Blanc-Rouge jersey with his nickname and number on the back. Carey Price was Pricer. Matthew Peca was Pecs. Max Domi was Shootsy. Jesperi Kotkaniemi was KK, and so on.
The jerseys were part of Montreal's annual TeleDON, where the organization raised money for area charities. Fans or collectors could bid on each jersey or donate at www.ourgoaltoassist.com to receive unique photos of Gallagher, Kotkaniemi and Hall of Fame forward Guy Lafleur.
