If the story of Carey Price’s induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame were solely about hockey, it would be interesting enough.World Junior gold, Calder Cup champion, Olympic champion, World Cup of Hockey champion, Vezina Trophy winner, Hart Trophy winner, Ted Lindsay Award winner, Montreal Canadiens franchise leader in games played and wins; Price’s hockey resume speaks for itself.But what makes it truly fascinating is the unlikeliness of it all, and the humanity behind it.When Price was 2 years old, his parents — Jerry and Lynda — moved from the lower mainland of British Columbia to Anahim Lake to ensure their young son would be in touch with his Indigenous roots. It is a tiny, remote village in northern B.C. of fewer than 2,000 people, the home of the Ulkatcho First Nation, of which Lynda Price served as chief.“Coming from my background, I think that when he was young, I felt like it was really important for him to know our family history,” Lynda Price said in 2018. “So I did my best to teach him about our roots. I think that was important for him to understand.”One problem: Anahim Lake had no indoor hockey rinks.Jerry Price was a former professional goaltender who was once drafted by the Philadelphia Flyers, but the lack of rinks did not stop him from helping to get Carey Price’s hockey career off the ground, as it were. It began with shoveling off the surface of a creek called Corkscrew that ran through the Price family’s backyard. It continued with Jerry getting his pilot’s license and acquiring a bush plane to fly his son to hockey practice several times a week in Williams Lake, roughly a 3 1/2-hour drive away.“When he and I were out playing on the creek, we had goalie pads, and we’d play goalie games and stuff like that,” Jerry Price said in 2019. “But I never pushed him to be a goalie at all. It was his choice entirely. He was a good player. He had a hard shot, and he was a good skater.”
