jigger-1 Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 this morning on Team990 he said something like "I am from out west and a big rodeo fan" (when he described that side of his new mask). Can't wait til he gets another start. You mean him him? Or the guy who called in pretending to be him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GIJAYNE Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 Although our site is reporting that Carey is from Vancouver, he's actually from Williams Lake BC. To be more precise even, he's from a very small town called Anahim Lake, a small mostly native community in northern BC. Rodeo is big out west as you can imagine, especially in the mid-upper northern part of the province. Nice...thanks for the background. If he becomes a dynasty goalie for the HABS I suppose we'll have to install a mechanical bull somewhere near the Cage-Aux-Sports in his honor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest lynn2574 Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 U know ur town is hockey crazey when the BACKUP goaltender gets a new mask and its the talk of the town Good thing this kid has nerves of steal LOL.... when he came "home" to the Tri-Cities after the World Jr's, a group of players, fans, and boosters met him at the airport. It's a TINY airport, so we pretty much filled the lobby. Carey looked like he wanted to die, being the celebrity of the moment. But, he handled it with grace.

It gives a lot of background on him, his growing up, his family, etc. Here are the links if you want to watch: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GIJAYNE Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 Have you guys seen the documentary on him that was done and aired in Canada? It gives a lot of background on him, his growing up, his family, etc. Here are the links if you want to watch: Wow so much I didn't know about him. He seems like the type of guy who has a strong character. I can see him being with this club for a very very long time...if not his whole career. Two issues come to mind after watching that (first one): 1) He mentions that he does not like the attention and media hype...Montreal along with TO is the most media hyped places to play hockey! 2) I know I keep coming back to this, but how long before they get those cawboy hats in to production with the CH!

Glad you had a chance to watch them. Carey doesn't like the attention, but he takes it all in stride. He seems to have a very level head on his shoulders. Last Feb (right when the documentary came out, he was in all the papers, and becoming a hockey star), we went to a fan event here locally. All the players had sharpie pens to sign autographs. Carey was sitting next to the back-up goalie who he's friends with (Chet Pickard). Everytime Chet reached out to sign something, Carey would write on his hand. Chet's hand was black! I started laughing, and asked, "Carey, is that any way for a superstar to act?" He just grinned and said, "Yep", and wrote on him again. Just an example that he's a good guy with a level head.

tommyv Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 The Cowboy is actually a bullrider, which signifies Riding the Bull that is the pressure and expectation of being a goalie in Montreal, Team 990 was talking about it this afternoon.

Guest 2VP Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 Nice mask...I like it. And I would be one of the first to get the cowboy hat with the CH! One question though. What is the significance of the cowboys? Carey is a huge rodeo fan, country music, and the outdoors in general. FYI to all, Carey's nickname is Pricey. It's been Pricey for 4 years now.

If we could dig up the old posts the day he was drafted I'm sure we would find people asking for BG's head because he drafted a goalie when we already had Jose " whats'-his-name" here ..........where is he now ?

I've been searching the forum for the last 15 minutes but I can't find the 2005 entry draft thread... It must have been lost when fan forums based with phpBB (including this one) were hacked a couple of years ago. I do recall several very upset fans questioning why we didn't pick Gilbert "what's his name again?"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
