Man I wonder where Fleury gonna end up

literally cost his team gm 3.


Considering that without him they don’t make it far enough to give him a chance to make that mistake, I don’t think he’s going anywhere

I'm waiting for capfriendly to blow up with Stone trades. Same thing that happened with Marner.

I'd dare to say he's now worth his qualifying offer lol


Well he was always worth $2.2 million, although how good he’s been in the playoffs definitely makes it more likely that they agree on a long-term deal.

I expect a permanent ban on anybody who says Price isn’t worth his contract after this

Even though I wanted Vegas to win this series, it is awesome seeing the Habs celebrate and it's a great underdog story ... great for the Habs fans as well! Congrats to the Canadiens on making the SCF!!!

its kind of a mixed bag with him

in the regular season he puts up okay numbers but not anywhere good enough for a 10.5mill goalie
in the playoffs he is god and is worth every penny

but for MTL to have sustained success he needs to be good all the time for his team to make the playoffs in a tough Atlantic division

Have to wonder how much of that is from being run into the ground and being afraid of an injury? The Habs have run him hard over the past decade.

The psychology with elimination games puts liquid nitrogen through Price's veins. It's an absolute treat to watch.

Sorry, that didn't really work out. I was trying to make something that compares Carey Price to a brick wall, but that didn't come out as I had hoped.

Injuries have taken a major toll on Price, both injuries in the season, and lingering problems from all the injuries he’s had over the years. As he’s showed this year and last, if he gets a lot of rest (which he accidentally got with his concussion this year) he can ramp up his game really quickly and play at the top of his game.

Although unfortunately with all of the wear and tear on his body, he can’t play at 100% for a full season. And it’s obviously smart to try and conserve his energy for the most important time of the year.

wonder if Bergevin gives Drouin to Seattle so he can keep Allen allowing for price to be rested as much as possible

cause you got to wonder if Allen goes to Seattle how many games would price have to play with Primeau backing him or would bergevin find another backup.

Primeau definitely isn’t NHL ready. Under the very likely assumption Seattle picks Allen, I’m hoping the habs can pick up Bernier or Brossoit for $3 million per or less.

I’m not sure what Drouin’s situation is, but the habs probably aren’t going to make a deal with Seattle, and they’re probably protecting Drouin (barring some circumstance I don’t know about).

Yessir. I don’t really feel like going up against the greatest roster ever constructed.
