Carey Price talks about when he might accept a job offer from the Montreal Canadiens

Whether during key playoff moments, injuries, or his incredible return in 2021, Price has always been a pillar for the Canadiens.

As his official retirement approaches, one question is on everyone's mind: what will Price do once he hangs up his skates?

Recently, during the Montreal Sports Card Expo, Price hinted at a possible future within the Canadiens' staff. While answering questions from some journalists, he confirmed that the team had already asked him if he would consider a coaching or player development role. His response was positive, though cautious.

The idea of Carey Price one day mentoring the young players of the Canadiens is appealing. He has always demonstrated unwavering calm under pressure, a valuable trait for players in a high-stakes market like Montreal.

However, the question remains whether Price would want to return to Montreal, where he would likely have to settle full-time. For now, his priority remains his family, but the thought of seeing him back at the Bell Centre in a different role is not off the table.

Carey Price, 37, is considered by many to be one of the top three goaltenders in the history of the Montreal Canadiens.

In 712 career games, he maintained a goals-against average of 2.51 and a save percentage of 0.917.

As for his record, it includes 361 wins, 261 losses, and 79 overtime losses (49 shutouts).
