Canadiens' Team Doctor Exposes the true reason why Carey Price retired
In a special Bell Center ceremony commemorating Dr. David Mulder's 60-year connection with the Montreal Canadiens, a revelation about Carey Price's career-ending knee injury emerged.
Dr. Mulder disclosed that Price's injury complexities exceeded initial understanding. During surgery for a meniscus injury in New York, surgeons discovered Carey Price's femur had lost all its cartilage.
Dr. Mulder clarified:
"He had a meniscus injury so we sent him to New York for an operation, and during it, the surgeon found that the femur had lost all of its cartilage. It was a surprise and that's what ended his career."
This unexpected turn marked a regrettable conclusion to the star goaltender's illustrious career, dispelling doubts about the Canadiens' medical staff's role.
