Carey Price calls out a fan who gave him a gift over 10 years ago

Carey Price never hesitated before giving to the next man.

He always took the time to sign autographs or take photos with fans. He has a good heart, and that’s a credit to him.

The goalie knows how important he is to the community, because he’s still one of the fans’ favorite players in Montreal. After all he’s contributed to the organization since his selection in the 2005 draft, it’s only fitting.

Price isn’t officially retired, but we know he’ll never play in the NHL again. So what does he do with his days?

We know Price is an avid fisherman and hunter, but he recently decided to clean up his old act.

In an Instagram story, he recounts how he found a rope given to him by a young fan “about 12 years ago” at a game in Edmonton.

The fan had asked him for a stick in exchange for said rope, and Price posted a video to explain that he still has it :

In the video, Price talks about a “little guy” who has surely become a “big guy”.

I don’t know why, but I laughed at the way he said it.

I really hope the fan in question saw that Price called him out. And if he did, I really wonder what his reaction was…

It must be special, at least.

Kudos to Carey Price, honestly. It just goes to show once again what a great personality he has.

– Good news.

Danièle Sauvageau says that they had so much demand for group tickets that they couldn’t open the seats behind the net online and accommodate the group demand.

They say they are still finalizing the TV set up before confirming the official amount of tickets sold and capacity.

– Right. Another case…

Minor hockey is a huge industry and the GTHL, the world’s largest minor hockey league with more than 40,000 participants and $10M in annual revenue, is grappling with growing calls for accountability and transparency. https://t. co/zc4wqeGiBG

– I like the comment.

I’ve watched hockey since 1967, & I can’t figure out how this #Flyers team has more points than Toronto! This team deserves LOTS of credit for outworking opponents & proving critics (including myself) wrong. Before the season, @BrianBoucher33 was the only 1 who saw this coming!
