Carey Price:
- Choose 3 questions relevant to the article you're evaluating:
- Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?
Everything in this article is relevant to both his personal and professional life.
- Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that bias noted?
I like the fact that there are many references from different sources throughout the entire article. This makes the article highly maintained and reliable.
- Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added?
All information included is up to date. I think video links could be added where it mentions how he plays. For example "the butterfly".
- Leave your notes in your sandbox space.
- You should also leave your evaluation on the article's Talk page. NOTE: Be sure to sign your feedback with four tildes — ~~~~.
Suggestions to avoid close paraphrasing or plagiarism:
To paraphrase even further, I think we can change the first sentence of "Internationally, Price has represented Canada at various tournaments at junior levels, winning silver medals at the World U-17 Hockey Challenge in 2004 and the IIHF World U18 Championship in 2005." to "Price has represented Canadian Men's Hockey in various tournaments."

Quality of the article and sources overall:
I think this article is well-written and of high quality. The introduction is clear and easy to understand. If I didn't know much about hockey or Carey Price, I would be able to learn a lot from this article. SkylarPeters (talk) 22:27, 9 March 2017 (UTC)
