Hockey's Roots: Carey Price's Backyard Creek

0:00It's March 6th for the NHL, let's get into it. Follow and subscribe for more team news every day. Kerry Price, the longtime gold tender for the Montreal Canadiens, had a unique start in hockey. He grew up in the remote community of Anaheim Lake in British Columbia, a place with nearly 400 people and no indoor rink at all. His mother, Linda Price, served as a former chief of the Ulkocho First Nation. She chose to raise him there to keep him connected to his roots in that isolated area, without a proper rink nearby. Young Kerry learned to skate right on the creek behind his family home. It was a simple setup, but it built the foundation for his skills. That backyard creek practice paid off big time. Price went on to become one of the NHL's top goalies, earning respect across the league for his steady play. Today, his story reminds fans how hockey passion can start anywhere, even on a frozen stream far from the pros. The Daily News Now is presented by our sponsor, head in, sound on, lights out.
