The Montreal Canadiens are currently tied 1-1 with the Pittsburgh Penguins and Carey Price is the biggest reason why.
The Montreal Canadiens have been relying heavily on Carey Price for the last decade. The team has not won any Stanley Cups in that time, but any success the organization has found since 2010 has been because of the team’s number one goaltender.
Price became the team’s starter in the 2010-11 season. Jaroslav Halak was brilliant for the Habs in the 2010 postseason, but he was dealt for Lars Eller in the offseason, as the team needed to choose between their two restricted free agent netminders.
