Fans vote Carey Price as Montreal's top sports personality of 2018

MONTREAL -- Carey Price added another honor to his trophy case on Monday, this time courtesy of his fans.

Local print monthly Cult MTL
shared the results of its annual readers poll this week
, and Price topped the list as the city's Best Sports Personality, beating out teammate Brendan Gallagher.
Canadiens captain Max Pacioretty rounded out the Habs who made the cut, finishing seventh overall on a list which included UFC fighter Georges St-Pierre, Impact star Ignacio Piatti, and Olympian Tessa Virtue.
The nod marks Price's second appearance in as many years atop the English-language publication's sportsperson category.
It's likewise a second "people's choice" honor for Price in as many months, having also been named the NHL's toughest goalie to score on by a jury of his peers in March's annual
NHLPA Player Poll
.
The All-Star netminder is among the city's most-followed athletes online, and bolstered his social media presence with an Instagram account last May.

Since joining the photo- and video-sharing service, the 30-year-old has notably put his recently-acquired dad powers to good use, routinely breaking the Internet with help from his daughter Liv.
