After skating with full equipment in secret for several days, Carey Price has finally taken his full equipment skating into the public’s eye.
Bonne nouvelle!

This is good news, and indicates that Price’s recovery is continuing to go well with the added weight that the goaltending equipment puts on his lower body.
I would imagine Price is still quite a ways away from playing but the Canadiens are definitely seeming to push for a return this season which would be great for a bunch of reasons.
First, if worst case, Price goes down again, he’ll have a whole offseason to recover and best case, Price will be able to play games and avoid a second offseason in three years where we’re discussing about how he will be able to bounce back.
