The most decorated goaltender of his generation — Hart Trophy winner and Canada's Olympic hero.
Carey Price was born in Anahim Lake, British Columbia in 1987. Montreal Canadiens selected him fifth overall in the 2005 NHL Draft. His career produced 362 wins and 49 shutouts. He won the Hart Trophy as the NHL's most valuable player in 2015 — only the second goaltender to win the award in the modern era after Dominik Hašek. He won the Vezina Trophy in 2015. He won Olympic gold with Canada in 2014 — his performance in the tournament, allowing only three goals in five games, was the defining individual performance of the Games. He led Montreal to the Stanley Cup Finals in 2021, where they lost to Tampa Bay in five games. He was selected to six All-Star games. He was the most important player on a Montreal franchise that struggled to build around his excellence. A severe knee injury in 2021 and subsequent recovery issues limited his final seasons. He grew up in a remote First Nations community in British Columbia and is the most prominent Indigenous player in NHL history.
