For the second straight month, Price was the best player for the Canadiens. After missing the team’s holiday road trip to end December, the Canadiens’ goaltender came back in force after the birth of his second daughter.
Price was 5-3-0 with two shutouts and a 1-0 loss. His save percentage of .953 and goals against average of 1.51 were second in the NHL, behind only Juuse Saros who played in five games. He was the lone Canadiens player named to the All-Star team, but chose to skip it to rest for the second half of the season.
