Cayden Primeau

Cayden Primeau (born August 11, 1999) is an American professional ice hockey goaltender who is currently playing as a prospect for the Montreal Canadiens of the National Hockey League (NHL). He helped Northeastern win their third Hockey East Tournament in 2019 and received the Mike Richter Award as the National Goaltender of the Year the same season.
==Playing career==
Primeau was stellar during his brief college career. In his freshman season he won 19 games and helped Northeastern jump from eighth to second in Hockey East While the team didn't fare well in the postseason, Primeau was named to the All-Hockey East Rookie Team, First Team and won the conference goaltending title for having the lowest goals against average in league play. The following season Primeau pushed the Huskies even further, winning a program record 25 games and earning the Tournament MVP when Northeastern won the third Hockey East tournament in program history. Primeau's team once again faltered in the NCAA tournament but that did not stop him from being named an AHCA East First Team All-American and winning the Mike Richter Award.
After his sophomore season concluded Primeau ended his college career by signing an entry-level contract with the Montreal Canadiens.
==Personal life==
Primeau is the son of former NHL player Keith Primeau, and was born in Farmington Hills, Michigan where his family kept an off-season home when Keith played for the Detroit Red Wings earlier in his career. 
Primeau and his family moved to Voorhees, New Jersey when he was five months old, after his father got traded to the Philadelphia Flyers in January 2000.
