Carey Price is well known as a generational goaltender of the current era of the National Hockey League, to prove that statement you can take a look at his stats from just a couple seasons ago, Price was indeed a different breed.

Something you cannot just look up is mental health and certain addictions, Price had his fair share of battles last season and is a true warrior. One year ago Price agreed to take part in the NHL's player assistance program. After Price took place in the program he only participated in 5 games, his final came alongside a big win on April 29th, which may have been his last game played in the NHL.

Info was revealed this summer, and the statement was confirmed today, September seventh:

''Montreal Canadiens GM Kent Hughes says he doesn't see a path for Carey Price to return and play during the 2022-23 season.''

Sadly all fingers are pointing to Price retiring, and Price released his first statement since announcing he will not be playing next season whatsoever..

''I just want to thank everyone who has been supportive over the past few weeks, months and years. It has been a very emotional time for myself. Merci. GO HABS GO!''

With this info, all fingers are pointing to Price retiring, being 35 years of age and recently having a new addition to the family alongside his three kids will more than likely prioritize family time, over attempting to make a return to the NHL which will cause more health issues.
