Carey Price Comforts Young Fan Who Lost Mom To Cancer

Montreal Canadiens star goaltender Carey Price is in the news again but not for his play on the ice.  Instead, Carey Price is stealing headlines with his empathy and kindness displayed with a young fan.  During warm-ups before a game in Toronto, Price met Anderson. Anderson had recently lost his mom to cancer the year prior.

When Anderson’s mom was sick she promised him she would do everything in her power to help meet his hero Carey Price.  Unfortunately, she passed away before they were able to meet Carey. With a little help from friends and the Montreal Canadiens Anderson’s dream came true.

Over And Above

Andersons Aunt took him to the morning skate to meet the superstar goalie.  It would have been one thing for Carey to come over and greet the young fan. But he chose to spend some time with Anderson, giving him an array of autographed memorabilia. Most importantly he gave him a huge hug that will last forever. As a result, she has this to say about Price on social media.

“As you can see in the video, Carey Price was a class act not only giving Anderson two signed sticks, a signed puck, signing his jersey and mini stick but he also gave him the biggest hug. Words cannot describe how much this meant to Anderson and we are forever grateful to this wonderful man.”
