The Montreal Canadiens edged the Washington Capitals 2-1 last night. It was a win that leaves the Habs within shouting distance of first place in the overall standings with a few games in hand. The win was also a great bounce back from a poor performance against the San Jose Sharks a night earlier.
It was also Carey Price’s 250th win as a Montreal Canadiens goaltender. It’s a long way from Martin Brodeur’s 691 career victories. However, Price is in some rarified air when it comes to Canadiens netminders.
This is Price’s 10th season with the Habs.
