Description

Price gonna walk in that dressing room like “I got one more in me”.

And the team Habs will play against will lose their minds on how it’s cap circumvention.

On a side note, who would MTL target at the trade deadline if they are in a hypothetical (and miraculous) playoff spot. Make suggestions and I’ll try to add them on here.

Quote from Price at the Habs golf tournament:

“I feel like I could go out there at this training camp and make the team but then I play in a softball tournament and my knee swells up for 2 weeks and I'm like 'OK, a full burden of a season's load, it's not going to cut it.”

I do think the panthers fall out of playoffs and the bruins will be fighting for a spot but so will the sens and sabres I don’t think the Habs make the playoffs this year

Completely agree, I think Habs will be a bottom 10 team this year. This is just playing with the idea that if by some miracle of circumstances, Habs make the playoffs, would Price try to make a comeback for “one last try” at the cup.

DustinBrown1989 and CBA liked this.
