The Montreal Canadiens announced that Carey Price will not attend the All-Star Game. The veteran goaltender was voted in for a sixth time to participate in the annual League showcase, but after a discussion with the team’s medical staff, it was decided that Price would not attend in order to rest a nagging injury instead.

Carey Price had already missed a road trip earlier in December as a result of the injury which he said he was carrying for seven weeks already.

Certainly this is the right call for the player and the team.
