Shocking statement by Carey Price on his health condition
In an interview with Arpon Basu of The Athletic, Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price gave more details about his knee injury.
For one thing, he said he is unable to walk up or down stairs without pain, even though he has already undergone surgery and treatment afterwards.
Also, Price told the reporter that he would undergo another surgery, in order to have a better post-career life with his children.
« I'm gambling the next 20 years of my life on an operation that is not guaranteed to turn out well 100%. It's a lot less than that. I think the doctor said 75% but it's probably less than that. That would be optimistic and we're talking about a situation of someone who just wants to live a normal life. I look at it more on the pessimistic side and wonder what's going to happen to me if the surgery isn't successful and I can never walk up and down a hill or bend over to play with my kids again." - Carey Price
Price says he still has the fire, but he knows it would take a miracle to get back into the game.
« Yeah, I still want to play the game." -Carey Price
