Thanks to a very interesting article by journalist Anthony Martineau and a press conference filled with humanity and sportsmanship, Toronto Maple Leafs forward Mitch Marner has just put the rivalry aside to give a remarkable testimonial to Carey Price.
Marner clearly has a lot of respect for number 31:
"I've been watching Carey play for a long time, whether it was at the World Cup, the Olympics or even the World Junior Championship. He was always special to watch. He knew he could make his opponents' night difficult. He's quite a competitor. Obviously, hockey misses Carey. But life and family must come before hockey. The most important thing is to take care of yourself and be respectful and present for the people you love." - Mitch Marner, Toronto Maple Leafs forward
Hockey misses Carey, it's so true!
A speech given just hours before a Canadiens - Leafs duel, and it's a credit to him that he stopped his press conference to talk a little bit about our Carey.
Speaking of praise, Auston Matthews also had a lot to say about Cole Caufield:
"He's very good. I really like the way he plays. He's a very smart player with a great shot. He's able to find angles for shots in a lot of ways. He's a very fun guy to watch play. You're going to have to keep an eye on him because he doesn't need a lot of space to take shots."
For all the interesting details and full transcripts:
