The Canadians’ captain Nick Suzuki celebrates his 24th birthday on Thursdaye birthday, and his inseparable pal Cole Caufield wouldn’t ignore the whole thing on social media.
The No. 22 in the Habs, regularly spotted alongside his team-mate in several shots, posted a photo showing him in the company of Suzuki in front of a heavenly backdrop.

The image shows the two men in golf gear holding their respective fairway woods. They are standing on a rock under a blue sky, with a bluish-turquoise sea in the background. They also recently traveled to the Bahamas to soak up the sun.
The friendship between the two men seems stronger than ever. Suzuki dubbed the American a “little brother” in a recent interview with the Daily Hive website, which shouldn’t hurt on the ice next season.
They each failed 26 times in the 2022–23 season, but it took Caufield just 46 games to reach that plateau before having to undergo shoulder surgery.
