Carey Price has been on another plane of existence during the 2021 Stanley Cup Playoffs, and in Game 3 against Vegas he found another level to rise to. He stopped 43 of 45 shots to earn the win, and he did so with his team generating only eight shots through 40 minutes of play. The first goal against was a play Eric Staal would like back immediately as his errant pass to the net-front allowed Nicolas Roy to lift his shot by Price.
Alex Pietrangelo managed to fool Price in the third period, with a low shot just making it over his pad and under his blocker.
