Carey Price breaks silence with message Canadiens fans didn't expect ahead of Game 6
Carey Price gave Martin St-Louis and Montreal Canadiens fans a reminder this week: the bond with No. 31 still hasn't faded.
Price broke his silence on Instagram with a rare message on his personal page, and it landed exactly where Habs fans hoped it would.
The moment started with a fan account post celebrating Price's career, his body of work, and everything he meant to the Canadiens crease over the years.
What followed was a flood of support in the comments.
Not the usual social media noise. Just love, memory, and respect from a fan base that still treats him like one of its own.
Price noticed it, and he answered himself.
He thanked everyone in the comment section, said it's rare now to scroll and see nothing but support, and closed it with the words every Montreal fan knows by heart: Go Habs Go.
It's rare these days that you can scroll through the comments and see nothing but love.
Thank you all for being fans.
GO HABS GO!"
Price still sounds like a Canadiens cornerstone
That's what stood out most. This didn't read like a former player checking in out of obligation. It sounded like someone who still feels tied to the sweater, the city, and the people around it.

That matters in Montreal. Legends don't stay in the background for long, especially not one who carried the club through so many heavy nights and playoff runs.
There's also a bigger layer here.
Price has already made it clear he wants to return to Montreal at some point, and messages like this only add to the belief that it will happen.
Maybe that role is as an ambassador. Maybe it's as a special advisor around the locker room and the goaltending group. A formal coaching job still feels like a stretch right now.
But the idea of Price around the organization again no longer feels far-fetched. Fans want it, and just as important, he doesn't sound closed off to it.
That's why this post hit so hard. It wasn't just nostalgia. It felt like a small signal that the relationship is still active, still personal, and maybe still building toward something more.

With Game 6 set for Bell Centre, the timing only added more fuel. In a building that lives on emotion, one message from Carey Price was enough to get people wondering what might come next.
