Carey Price is a goaltender for the Montreal Canadians. He used to be a back up goalie for Cristobal Huet. But now he is the number one goalie and his backup goalie is Al Montoya. He is the number 1 goalie for Team Canada and his backup goalies for him is Roberto Luongo, and Mike Smith. This years Olympics he only got 3 goals on him and he got 2 shutouts this Olympics. He won 3-0against Sweden, and he won 1-0 against the United States.This years 2014 Olympics he helped Team Canada win the gold medal against Sweden.He helped the Montreal Canadians make it to the playoffs this year 2014. They already beat Tampa Bay 4-0 in the series and they beat the best team in the league Boston 4-3 was the series. So go Canadians go and I think he is the best goalie in the league. Plus he was born in Canada, British Columbia, and he was born in Anahim Lake.
