As a goalie myself, Price is more than a good goalie. He's the best of the past 15 years and I don't even wanna hear about Flower, Lundqvist, Vasy... His near perfection technique changed the present goaltending forever. I never hear anyone who was looking at Flower or Lundqvist to get better. We (the goalie) were always looking at Carey to learn. Despite beeing an absolute magnificent legend of a goalie, he was and still a model for the present goalies. Stats doesn't matter cause the habs suck (i'm a habs fan). It's not hasard if he was the #1 goalie for team canada in front of prime Luongo, Holtby, Crawford and Fleury, it's because he was better than them. Stanley cup or not I don't care, Carey is a top-5 all time.

I watched every game of Carey Price in his prime, which was roughly between 2012 and 2015, encompassing his gold medal run at the 2014 Olympics. In his prime, Price was a beast, single-handedly winning lobsided games that Montreal had no business winning. I had never seen a goalie who had shear technical abilities as well as athleticism. The thing is, that he never translated his heroics into a Stanley Cup, norfid he particularly distinguish himself during the playoffs. It's not that he played poorly during the yes, it's just that he didn't bring his game to another level. The thing is that Montreal has a legacy of. Goalies who have had spectacular playoff runs carrying the entire team on their back, that otherwise has no business winning. Dryden in 1971, Patrick Roy in 86 and 93, to a lesser Steve Penny in 1985 and jaroslav halak in 2010. It's true that he played well in the lockout playoff season, but I kind of place that in another category entirely since there for a lot of unusual circumstances. In the end, he never brought home a cop or excelled in the playoffs the way fans had hoped, and the last few years of his career were marrred by injury, drug rehab and just overall state of uncertainty while at the same time commanding the largest salary on the team despite not playing at all-- a very bittersweet end. To me, he has more in common with someone like Robert Luongo than Patrick Roy.

Price on 16 other teams would have probably won many Stanley Cup. He had one PPG player in his teams for his whole career, and it was Alex Kovalev during his rookie season.

As someone who saw Dryden and then Roy and the Hart winning Theodore, I can say that he was in the same class with Roy and Theodore. To me, he was the last of the great non-clone goalies of today who are positional only and don't make half as many athletic saves as the previous generations did. Sadly, he came along after the Canadiens ownership had changed and they lost the things that made them special and able to contend regularly. For a ten year period, right in the middle of his career, Montreal ranked DEAD LAST in drafted players making it to the NHL. That was one of the things that made them the envy of every other team, they drafted and developed better than anyone. It's such a shame that they couldn't put a half decent team in front of him for even one year.

IMO he is best goalie to ever play. He did amazing with what he had infront of him. The knee injury really hurt his last bit of his career. Will always be my favourite goalie.

I had season tickets for the Tri-City Americans when Price played in the minors. They were not a good team, and Price often faced 40-60 shots a game. However, his exceptional skills kept them somewhat competitive. He's undoubtedly one of the best goalies I've ever had the pleasure of watching play the game.

He is the NHL goalie version of a modern day GOAT.

I played goalie at a relatively high level for 12 years. I've seen all types, ive studied the greats - Carey Price is the most talented goalie of all time, imo. He's mechanically clean as it gets, awareness is off the charts, and he has that Hasek instinct to make the impossible saves. The peak didn't last forever, but if you factor in the scoring environment - i believe he posted the only season better than Haseks '99 season.

I always rooted for Carey and I really think he deserved a Stanley Cup. I'm ashamed MTL teams over his career couldn't make it happen. I wish the best for him.

Always injury here and there slowing him down, but you saw at the olympics, with a good team in front of him, he was almost unbeatable. I’ll remember him for almost never allowing a bad goal, it was really rare. One of the only way to beat him was to screen him, but if not, good luck. There’s a reason why players always voted him as the best goalie. Man such a shame with the teams he had, he represents his name relly well. The level of confidence he gave to his team was unmatched, the argument « never eon a cup » is so surface level in my opinion, watch him play au you’ll now. Put him with a above average team and yeah he wins a few.

Price means the absolute world to me both as a player and human being. Guy just dominated the 2010s like it was nothing. He was one of the biggest reasons why the 2010s was such a low scoring decade and how that made the game fun and hardcore. He never had a true superstar forward on his team that was a point per game or higher. He carried every team he had single handedly especially that unexpecting run to the final in 2021 with the habs being an 8th seed and all. He, Lundqvist and Luongo are prolly the best goalies to ever play not just in their generation but all time that didn't get their names on the cup. Ofc not everyone can win cups but at least 3 of those guys at least got to go to 1 cup final (Luongo in 2011, Lundqvist in 2014 and Price in 2021) so at least they got to experience that to see what it was like. Plus, Price got a 2014 gold medal and the vezina, jennings, ted lindsay and hart trophies in 2015 and is the winningest goalie in canadiens history so that certainly is good enough in my book for a goat!!! He also was the one who finally got me to break the stigma in dealing with a depression case of my own in the fall of 2021. From April 2020-October 2022, I had a big case of depression, anxiety, insomnia and more. It started in April 2020 but it wasn't actually that bad at first. It wasn't until January 2021 when it really got bad and I started getting desperate and going insane and it wasn't until November 2021 when I finally came public about it. I obviously could've came forward in 2020 but I wasn't sure how my superiors were going to take it since i had never dealt with that before until then but better late than never. Him revealing his own mental issues in October 2021 was what gave me the courage to break silence as well. It takes a shit ton of courage to do such a thing and who knows if I would've done it when i did or at all if it hadn't been for him. Some people say that he isn't tough or is too mentally weak or say stuff like real men don't believe in mental health issues and it sickens me. Money isn't everything. We are all human beings who can get mental challenges at anytime and revealing yourself and admitting you have a problem is by far the strongest thing a human can do. I am not ashamed of my own at all and I know he isn't either. Ever since November 2022, things for me personally have recovered pretty decently although i get some hurdles here and there. I just hope I get a chance to meet him in the future somehow so I can say thank you not just for all the joy he provided me on the ice but also giving me the strength I needed to take my mental health as seriously as possible!

Best goalie ever IMO - Leaf fan

Price is the GOAT of the post clutch n hold era, there just hasnt been that many greats since the old days but Carey is on top! King Henrik is a very close #2, after that is a steep drop to the next consistently dominant goalies

He's a hall of famer. Period. End of story.

Pittsburgh tried to have the covid playoff threshold reduced just because of Price

Roy was the king of goalies in mtl...Price adds an N and hes literally the Prince....imconvinced that the same outcomes would have happened if you switch Roy and Price...its their roads that made the difference

Price had a lot of hype around him. He delivered on the hype with an incredible rookie year. He wasn't as good in his 2nd season in 2008-2009 and some fans were already turning on him. He wasn't having a bad season but he was either incredible or let in soft goals. The 2009 playoffs is when a lot of fans turned on him. He wasn't good and the fans let him hear it giving him the bronx cheer. in 2009-2010, Price was getting the most hate he ever had in his career. He didn't have a great season and many fans thought he was never going to become a number 1 goalie. The 2010 playoffs is when the Price hate was at his worst. Many habs fans wanted Price to get traded since Halak played like a god in the playoffs. Halak got traded instead and many fans were furious. 2010-2011 is the season Carey Price became Carey Price. He was incredible and should've won the Vezina that year. This is the year all the Price haters were finally put to rest. The rest is history.

Lundqvist, Cam Ward and Fleury were also around the same level as Price during that Era. Corey Crawford and Pekka Rinne also world class back then but does not get enough credit

respect !!!! Goalie Tenders should be talked about more.

For sure !

He was great 🇨🇦

They called the man Jesus Price for a good reason. Montreal not assembling a cup winning team in front of him is downright criminal.

Halak was TRADED to the blues for Lars Eller.

My bad on that, didn’t realize there was a trade involved

Carey only had 1 person on this team score 80 points in his career. Alexei Kovalev was the only person to score 80 points in the 07-08 Season. Yeah, he is that good.

whats he doing now?

Carey is one of the best we’ve ever seen. Too bad he couldn’t win a cup. Haters are full of shit, they haven’t watched him play as some of us did growing up. Or they truly don’t know what a great goaltender is.

Hi miss you Carey price 😊

If the Habs management had gotten better quality players before 2021 Pricer would have led them to a couple of Cups. In 2021 they were out of gas against Tampa.

from a technical stand point, there was nobody better. Carey relied on his lateral movements. and his unearthly Ability to anticipation plays... dude was in a position to make a save, even before the play developed lol, this is what made him the Goaltender he was. and will retire as... no doubt in my mind he will be a First Ballot HOF'er

imagine being on top of a shooter, even before he recieved the puck, lol thinking you have the whole net. only to realize you're left staring at a 6'3 220 lb Goaltender out at the top of his Crease .... lol it's no wonder he frustrated the opposition 😂😂

basically tampa and new york stopped him from winning the cup

He deserved the cup.

Hahaha , hes literally top 5 in history 😤💪

The greatest ever

Baker Mayfield has a twin brother who plays hockey ? Wild.

He was definitely pretty solid

My only ever true sadness is that Carry will never be able to hoist the cup he so desperately deserves.

Pretty damn good.

Imagine if MTL won the cup in 2019.

I remember that draft. Was watching on a big screen in a lounge area at a Okanagan White Spot. EVERYONE was shocked by the pick. I remember Gainey being interviewed and asked why it was Carey Price (it was an unexpected pick at 5th). He answered he was "the best quality". I wanted Kopitar, and I still wish it was Kopitar, no offense to Price. I think if Price wasn't dealing with stuff he could've been even better. As awesome as he was, IMO (outside of international play) he'd be awesome in the playoffs but hit a wall before closing the deal. Got out goaltended in some big games. IMHO. Wish him well especially with dealing with his demons. He's a great guy.

Carried the team, should have let him go to a Stanley cup contender or a team of his choice for his services with a so so team.

In answer to your question, very good.

RIP Carey

I am convinced he would have become a top 3 goalie of all time if he didn't have injury problems. The Kreider incident really changed the trajectory of his career for the worst. To this day I still haven't forgiven him.

It's abysmal what this team did to him. His entire career, only one player had more than 80 points on his team (rookie year). Probably the biggest what if in league history

I named my dog Maximus Price ❤

Better than the team defending in front of him

The Habs went as price went. They couldn't put a team around him.

The price is right when the drinks are free.

Patrick Roy

I’ll always remember him in that shootout against the Americans in the semis of WJC, such an amazing ending to that game and for the shootout to go that many rounds. Despite not having a cup, he is right up there as the best goalie in the last 20 years with Fleury. He could steal games like no other and always seemed like such a genuinely nice person.

If you look at goals saves above average he is number on all his career when other like Raask has stellar defense and great two way offense and it goes for fleury, quick and so on. They should have been bottom league all these years but he was good enough to carry them to playoffs with addiction and a busted knee far from healthy. With a good team I think he would have done even. Better than vasilevsky did . He probably would have 3-4 cups

Very.

Mtl never really did put a great team in front of him, but Halak did outshine him at times. although he was a great goalie, I'd say he was probably the "best' of them for about 2 years, never was as consistent as Dryden or Roy.

With the horrible teams he had in front of him. I'd place him second behind Hasek in modern hockey. Having incredible stats while being the least offensively supported goalie in the playoffs. He's definitly top tier. I love Brodeur and Roy was great in the playoffs, but he could only dream of having similar teams as them.

King Henrik was better but that is about it from their era
