The loss snapped a three-game winning streak for Price, who is 2-1-0 with a 2.35 GAA and .908 SV% on home ice this season.

Price allowed two goals on 29 shots in the Canadiens win over the Canucks on Monday. After starting the season at 1-0-2, Price has won three straight while turning aside 73 of the 79 shots (.924 SV%) that he's faced. He is a must-start Thursday vs. a Senators team that that is on a nine-game losing streak and sit 26th in the NHL in goals per game (2.40).

Dellandrea has impressed early in the season but will be scratched on Tuesday for what the Stars are calling a "breather." Joel L'Esperance will replace him in the Stars' bottom-6.

Price allowed two goals on 25 shots in the Canadiens' win over the Flames last Thursday. Jake Allen gave him the night off on Saturday, so it's no surprise that Price will start the front-end of Montreal's back-to-back on Monday.

Tonight he'll face a Flames team that is coming off of back-to-back losses to the Maple Leafs and are 2-2-1 through five games.
