Losing their starting goalie was a big reason why the Montreal Canadiens spiraled. The Arizona Coyotes can point to a drop in scoring as the root of their collapse.
The Canadiens are making another switch in net as they try to avoid a fourth straight road loss Monday night against the Coyotes.
Montreal (27-25-4) has been without Carey Price for almost three months, and reports claim the reigning MVP could be lost for the season because of a knee injury that doesn't require surgery. The Canadiens are 10-21-2 without him, falling from the top of the NHL standings to six points out of a postseason spot.
