Even though he has been traded to the San Jose Sharks, goaltender Carey Price continues to closely follow the Montreal Canadiens’ activities.
Following the recall of young Jacob Fowler, he made a remarkable gesture by picking up the phone and immediately reaching out to the young goalie.
That is what Fowler himself revealed during his press conference.
Carey Price immediately called Jacob Fowler to support him
If the two can develop a certain bond, that would truly be extraordinary.
“Jacob Fowler said Carey Price reached out to him when he was called up. Price’s message to Fowler: he is supporting him, to soak in all the NHL experience and have fun.”

That is really classy coming from Price.
“On RDS, Jacob Fowler just said that Carey Price reached out to him after he got called up by the Habs, saying that he’s supporting him and to just have fun.”

Still during a press conference, young Fowler then added the following.
“Just living in the moment everyday, right here, right now. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t wanna be like every great goalie that’s ever played but I understand that I gotta be myself and that starts everyday…” – Jacob Fowler, via HabsOnReddit
You can say he clearly understood Carey Price’s wise advice.
