Next great defender out of Kelowna.

 

[FourQuarters]

 

[WeThreeKings]

Clearly gonna be a Hab.. the love child of Cayden Primeau and Carey Price.

 

[GermanSpitfire]

I really like this kids game.

Maybe a bit underrated as part of the strong ‘05 crop.

Rockets don't get much attention and hype. But after this season, Feist and Lee will leave the team. Price is sure to take on a bigger role next season. This is both an opportunity and a challenge.

 

[FourQuarters]

Wonder if mallette coach team red in selection camp, Price is a top pairing D in team red's line-up. I like him, and believe in him, but he in mot generally thought so high of. I missed today's game. How did he do?

 

[Alberta tough]

I thought he was the best Dman today.

 

[Brock]

I thought he was the best Dman today.

I'll second that.

 

[GermanSpitfire]

He’s definitely having a coming out party of sorts at the Hlinka.

Arguably Canada’s best defender with Cameron Allen.

 

[Lavar Ball]

What a dish here

 

[GermanSpitfire]

What a dish here

He makes it look so easy but if you’ve played organized hockey at any level you know just how difficult that pass is.
Phenomenal vision.

 

[FourQuarters]

I'm not going to set my expectations too high, the 2023 draft has too many good players. But I'm glad to see Price get known by people after playing in lee and feist's shadow all year.

 

[GermanSpitfire]

He’s gonna have a big season in Kelowna.

 

[FourQuarters]

He’s gonna have a big season in Kelowna.

I'm worried… We don't have a lot of talented players in this season, Novak will be stepping away from hockey this season due to healthy issue, Lee and Feist finished their overage season, Colton is still immature…

Then he has plenty of opportunity to show his skill set. Probably best case scenario for him from the sounds of it.

 

[landy92mack29]

His defensive game has come so far in such a short time. Was a forward until bantam then switched to defense. Was a pure ofd in bantam but got better in midget...Kelowna is definitely helping also. Unbelievable skater with a good shot and size. Still think he's pretty raw so big upside with him

 

[WeThreeKings]

He's really trying to get himself into the Lindstein/Allen conversation.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

I think he's probably the best of the Canadian defenseman prospects from the Hlinka team. I don't think he's as good right now as Allen, so I could see why someone would prefer Allen, but with his size and having good potential, as mentioned above, in a number of parts of the game I think he's one of the defensemen to watch for this upcoming season. Some of these defensemen are going to rise. There are not going to be no defensemen picked in the top 10.

 

[CheckingLineCenter]

I think he looks every bit of a top 10, if not top 5, pick.

 

[FourQuarters]

I would say Pricer has become the best Dman on the team. Almost no mistakes, keep production, 3gp 4p.

[Artorius Horus T]

8 points in as many games, so far.

 

[FourQuarters]

Price had a tremendous game tonight. His skating is unreal tonight.
