If Carey has played his final game with the Habs, we'll be glad to know he always gave evrything he had, never complained about the team in front of him and always blamed himself first. One of the most humble players on and off the ice. True class and one hell of a talent.

[@V3rnSqwd5611]

Best run I’ve seen from a goalie since Jean Sebastian gigguirre who also lost in the finals.

[@funkyjeff77]

I paused the video. I ve been a Habs fan since 1983, I saw Guy Lafleur, Robinson, Chelios, Gainey, Naslund, Roy, and then there was Price...None of the guys I mentionned have been as criticized as Carey. Everybody knows Carey is a great person, a generous human being and loving husband. I am very thorn between him getting the chance to win the cup in Seattle, because he deserves it so much ! But at the same time, I will be gutted to see our franchise player leave if he indeed does leave. But make no mistake no other current NHLer, except for Shea Weber maybe - if he was to ever come back - deserves more a cup than Carey. He has played on such mediocre teams, no offense, no PMD, bad PP, and bad coaches (Michel Therrien, Carbonneau) it is a situation à la Raymond Bourque. Yes he earns a big salary but he WON a Calder cup, a WJC, a GOLD medal, a Vezina Trophy, but he has been bashed from disloyal fans even before he started playing for the Habs in 2007. So now, go my son, go win a cup in Seattle, and boy I ll miss you Carey...I will miss you...love from Montréal xxxx
