Question: Is wearing a baseball cap with a suit and tie the absolute worst fashion decision a man can make?
Answer: If it's a Montreal Canadiens hat, yes.
Habs goalie Carey Price poses for the camera in a new ad for Harry Rosen menswear, a clothing store for the well-dressed Canadian man. Harry Rosen is no discount warehouse store; the brand names sold in its stores include Armani, Hugo Boss and Dolce & Gabbana.
Items like that are right up Price's alley. To prove it, Harry Rosen released a video of Price voguing in front of the camera, like a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader at calendar shoot but without the bikini, for the advertising campaign. About 12 seconds in, we discover why Price had a 2.35 goals-against average last season: There's three of him!
Price never dons the hat in the video while wearing the suit — such a display should be reserved for draft night — but you can tell by the way he holds it in his hands that he's thinking about. Don't do it, Carey. Stay strong.
If he starts rocking a cane and a fedora, he's lost the battle.

Price is the epitome of "the modern man," whatever that means.
