Pint-sized Pacioretty takes a shot at Carey Price

Montreal Canadiens captain Max Pacioretty brought a pint-sized companion with him to practice on Sunday — his son Enzo.

Enzo warmed up with a few passes from forward Daniel Carr before stepping up to the real challenge of the day — sneaking a goal past netminder Carey Price.

Some fans took notice of the feel-good moment, including musician and ex-Great Big Sea member Alan Doyle.

Pacioretty isn't the only NHLer to get their children involved in their on-ice career.

Tyler Bozak's son is also an avid fan, sporting a customized Toronto Maple Leafs jersey with "Daddy" on the back at Bozak's games.

Pittsburgh Penguins defenceman Kris Letang relies on his son Alex for his game-day routine, including a quick choice of shoes and a pre-game hug.

Letang will get to spend a little more time with his son after being sidelined with a lower body injury.
