Anyone that says that Carey Price won that game for the Montreal Canadiens is wrong. Anyone that says the defense lost that game is wrong. The Columbus Blue Jackets power play is the sole reason for this loss agains the Montreal Canadiens.
Carey Price played fine. Not other worldly, just fine. He was an above average goalie that stopped average chances tonight. Especially on the five power plays the Columbus Blue Jackets had. The Jackets had one man advantage where they generated significant scoring chances and that came in the third period.
The Jackets can not continue to have the power play be a momentum drain on the team.
