Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price will sit out Sunday's game against Boston and also won't travel to New York to face the Rangers on Wednesday. He's only just made his season debut and has played a lot of games lately, so interim head coach Martin St. Louis wants to give Price a break. Price sadly hasn't yet managed to taste victory in four starts, registering a 4.04 goals-against average with a .853 save percentage. The former MVP looked pretty solid in his first couple of outings, but the last two have gone horribly for him and it's probably a smart choice to give him some time off. Price is expected to return for Montreal's season finale on Friday against Florida.
Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price played his second National Hockey League game of the season on Tuesday night against the Minnesota Wild. He stopped 28 of 30 Wild shots for a .933 save percentage in the game. The Canadiens lost the game because they couldn't find a way to solve Cam Talbot, who posted a shutout. In his two games since returning from an extended leave of absence, Price has a 2.02 goals-against average and a .918 save percentage. He hasn't won a game yet, but that's because of the lack of goal support from his team. It remains to be seen whether he will continue his career next season or hang up his skates for good.
Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price made his season debut with a 17-save performance in Friday's 3-0 loss against the Islanders. The 34-year-old appeared in his first game since July of 2021, when he helped lead the Canadiens to the Stanley Cup Final against the Tampa Bay Lightning in the shortened season. Price was perfect through 40 minutes before giving up a pair of goals in the third period, and he would finish with 17 saves on 19 shots against on the night. Price will likely make his next appearance in Tuesday's contest against the Wild, and fantasy managers are glad to see the veteran goaltender back in action after missing almost the entire season.
Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price (knee) is hopeful that he will be able to make his season debut sooner than later. The 34-year-old dealt with a few setbacks in his rehab process after undergoing offseason knee surgery in July. On Saturday, Price was skating in full equipment for the first time since the middle of December, and his progress over the coming weeks will be the deciding factor on his return date. Price was significant factor in the Canadiens' run to the Stanley Cup Finals last season, and fantasy managers should continue to stash the veteran goaltender as he nears a return to the crease for the first time since last July.
Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price will be out indefinitely after voluntarily entering the NHL/NHLPA player assistance program on Thursday. The 34-year-old was already set to miss the start of the season while still recovering from off-season knee surgery. Price posted a 12-7-5 record to go along with a 2.64 goals-against average and a .901 save percentage in 25 starts last season and was instrumental in his team's surprise appearance in the Stanley Cup Final. Expect Jake Allen (38% owned in Yahoo! leagues) to take over the starting role while Price is out.
Carey Price To Remain In Montreal Following Expansion Draft
The Seattle Kraken chose to pass on goaltender Carey Price in Wednesday's expansion draft. The 33-year-old netminder's decision to volunteer to be exposed so his team could instead protect fellow goaltender Jake Allen was arguably one of the biggest topics of discussion over the past few days. Price had a mediocre regular season in 2020-2021 (12-7-5 record, 2.64 goals-against average, .901 save percentage) but is coming off an excellent playoffs (2.28 GAA, .924 SVP) in which he helped lead his team to the Stanley Cup Final. Ultimately, the Kraken chose to go with cheaper options in net and selected defenseman Cale Fleury from Montreal.
Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price was forced to exit Monday's 4-1 loss to Edmonton with an upper-body injury. He lasted only one period in the game, saving all seven shots he faced. Jake Allen came in to replace him and allowed three goals on 28 shots. Eric Staal scored the only goal. Price had just returned from a lower-body problem last weekend. It's not known yet how much time the star goalie has to miss. Price has put together a 12-7-5 record in 25 starts during his injury-hit season.
Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price will record his 25th start of the season on Monday against Edmonton. It will be his second appearance since the former MVP returned from a lower-body injury. His comeback game didn't go according to play as Montreal suffered a 4-0 defeat against Ottawa on Saturday. Price looked rusty and gave up three goals on 14 shots. His record for the year dropped to 12-7-5, and he currently boasts a 2.67 goals-against average with a .900 save percentage and one shutout. Price posted his lone shutout against the Oilers in a 4-0 win on March 30, so he should feel confident here, especially after going a perfect 3-0-0 in the matchup so far this term.
Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price will guard the crease as the team makes its return from a COVID-19 break on Monday versus Edmonton. It's going to be Price's second appearance of the season against Connor McDavid's squad after he posted a nice 34-save performance in a 5-1 win on Jan. 16. Price has been solid this month with a 5-1-2 record, which has improved his overall numbers for the season to 10-5-5. He boasts a 2.71 goals-against average and a .903 save percentage. It's a tough matchup for Price and the Canadiens, but at least they will be fresh, which can't be said about the Oilers who played last night against Toronto.
Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price will face the Edmonton Oilers in his 21st start of the season on Monday. He beat the Oilers 5-1 with a 34-save effort at the start of the year, but Price's form has been inconsistent ever since, and he will enter Monday's matchup with a 10-5-5 record. Price hasn't yet registered a single shutout in 2020-21, and he has a 2.52 goals-against average with a .903 save percentage. Montreal's star goalie beat Vancouver in a shootout on Saturday, but he has recorded back-to-back wins just twice this season, and getting there against Connor McDavid's squad will be very difficult.
Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price will go for his fourth win in five games against the Flames on Saturday. The former MVP had an inconsistent start to the season, but he has now allowed just one goal in each of his last four starts, to improve his record to 8-4-4. Price has allowed 2.59 goals per game this season with a .906 save percentage. Montreal's star goalie is known for always killing it on Saturday nights. He has gone 4-1-0 on the sixth day of the week this season and has a 119-52-25 career record on Saturdays with a 2.27 goals-against average, a .925 save percentage, and 23 shutouts.
Montreal Canadiens veteran netminder Carey Price will start against the Vancouver Canucks on Wednesday. Price lost his last outing 2-1 in a shootout to Vancouver on March 8th. He sports a 7-4-4 record with a 2.69 goals-against-average and a .903 save percentage. The 33-year-old is 2-1-2 in his last five starts allowing 12 goals. Despite some struggles, the Canadiens goalie is still always a great option for a fantasy team.
Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price will man the crease as his team takes to the road to square off against the Vancouver Canucks on Monday night. The 33-year-old last made an appearance in his team's 7-1 victory over Winnipeg on Saturday in which he stopped 28 of 29 shots against. It's been a bit of a bumpy road to start the season for Price but he's coming off two solid performances (two goals against on 56 shots against). Price will enter the contest with seven wins, a 2.83 goals-against average and a .898 save percentage in 14 starts in 2020-2021.
Carey Price, Montreal Looks For Form During Four-Game Week
Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price has ended a cold spell with back-to-back wins, and he has a favorable four-game week to build momentum. The Habs get a pair of games against Vancouver and Calgary, who both have been slumping. The two teams have combined for only 13 wins since the start of February and find themselves still behind the Canadiens in the North Division, despite the Habs going through an awful spell, which led to the firing of Claude Julien. Montreal dominated the matchup against Vancouver earlier in the season as Tyler Toffoli went off for 11 points in five games against his former side. Price posted a 2-0-1 record in three appearances against them. Josh Anderson is healthy again and scored in his comeback game on Saturday, Nick Suzuki is riding a four-game point streak and Tomas Tatar has five points across three games -- there's a lot of potential for sneaky pickups among the Habs.
Montreal Canadiens goalie Carey Price will be in goal against the Winnipeg Jets Saturday. Price has struggled in his last five starts winning just two of those five contests while allowing 16 goals. He carries a record of 6-4-3, a goals-against-average of 2.96, and a .893 save percentage. The veteran netminder has only started one game this season against Winnipeg, resulting in a 6-3 loss on February 25th. Montreal hopes Price can turn his year around as they fire their goaltending coach Stephane Waite on Friday.
Carey Price Tries To End Cold Stretch Versus Ottawa
Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price will make his 13th start of the season in Tuesday's home game against Ottawa. He's looking for a change of fortune after dropping five of his last six starts. It's not been a great season by Price, who has allowed fewer than three goals only five times. He owns a 5-4-3 record ahead of Tuesday's action with a 3.13 goals-against average and a .888 save percentage. The Canadiens are in horrible form, but it's a must-win game for them against a team that has just eight wins for the season. The Senators finish off a back-to-back set, so Joey Daccord makes his second career start.
Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price will record his 11th start of the season in Tuesday's matchup with the Senators. He's looking to pick up some momentum after losing three of his past four appearances. Price is 5-3-2 for the year with a 2.87 goals-against average and a .893 save percentage. Ottawa shocked Montreal on Sunday with a 3-2 overtime win, but they have an awful 5-14-1 record for the year, so Price should be able to register his sixth win of the season. Matt Murray wasn't at the morning skate, but he is still expected to start for the Senators. He has won only three of his 13 starts in 2020-21.
Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price backstopped his team to a 2-1 road win over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday. The 33-year-old collected his fifth win of the campaign with his strong performance, stopping 21 of 22 shots against in the contest. While the Canadiens have jumped out to a nice start to 2020-2021, Price has been adjusting to a lighter workload in net - posting a 2.64 goals-against average and a .901 save percentage through nine starts. While his ratios could certainly improve, he remains a top-tier fantasy goaltender and will look to continue picking up wins when he gets his next start versus the Leafs next Saturday.
Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price will start in Wednesday's matchup against the Toronto Maple Leafs. The former MVP had a shaky start to the year, but he has now won three of his last four starts to improve his record to 4-1-2. Price owns a 2.81 goals-against average and a .899 save percentage. He boasts a good 26-15-5 career record against Toronto, but the Leafs come into the contest with seven wins in their last eight outings, so it's a difficult matchup for Price, who has already suffered one defeat against the league leaders this season. Frederik Andersen, who has an 8-2-1 record for the season, will likely start in the opposite net.
Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price is in a perfect spot to keep his point streak going on Thursday when the Habs face an Ottawa Senators side that has dropped nine in a row. Price has had a couple of lackluster performances by giving up five goals, but the games have still gone past regulation, so his record for the season stands at 4-0-2. The former MVP carries a 2.77 goals-against average and a .903 save percentage. He has won three starts in a row and it would be a huge shock if his winning streak ended on Thursday.
