Price stopped all 36 shots that he faced in the Canadiens shutout win over the Sabres on Saturday. It was an impressive return to the crease for Price, who will look to turn his season around after struggling before he missed 10-games due to injury. Tonight he is expected to face a Blue Jackets team that is 7-3-1 in 11 road games this season.

Price has missed the last 10 games with a lower-body injury, but returns to the crease tonight vs. the Sabres. Price had an abysmal start to the season by his standards, but some of that can likely be attributed to him playing through an injury. Price returns to the Canadiens at 3-7-1 with a 3.77 GAA and .877 SV% in 11 starts—but one of those wins came against the Sabres, where he stopped 43 of 45 shots on opening night.



Price has missed the last eight games with the lower-body injury but could return to the crease on Wednesday. Charlie Lindgren will start on Tuesday, but monitor Price’s status heading into Wednesday’s game in Nashville.


Price said today that he hurt himself in warmups in Minnesota on November 2nd and said he felt fine during the game but was hurting when he work up the next day. Price added that he would play tonight if it were a playoff game, which is a huge positive for Canadiens fans. Don’t expect to see him this week but it sounds like he should be back next week.

Wennberg has reportedly been dealing with some kind of injury recently so he may not be in the lineup in Montreal on Tuesday. If Wennberg doesn’t play, Sonny Milano will draw back into the lineup and their lines will likely be shuffled.

Bowers, 18, was a first round pick (No.28 overall) this summer and is currently in his first season at Boston University, where he has four goals and two assists in 10 games. Bowers is at least a year or two away from making it to the NHL.

Price, who has not looked like himself so far this season, will miss some time with what is being called a minor lower-body injury. With Price hurt, Charlie Lindgren is expected to be recalled from Laval (AHL) to serve as Al Montoya’s backup on Saturday. Consider Price as questionable for Sunday’s game in Chicago.

Price allowed four goals on 26 shots in the Canadiens’ win over the Rangers last Saturday. Al Montoya started Monday’s win in Ottawa, so they’ll come back to Price tonight in Minnesota. Price had an ugly 3.64 GAA and .883 SV% in the month of October and has a tough matchup tonight vs. a Wild team that sits 12th in the NHL in scoring (3.10 GF/PG).

White missed the start of the season with a fractured wrist that he suffered in the preseason but it looks like he is ready to return to action, but that will happen in the AHL instead of the NHL. He will make his season debut on November 1st and will likely be brought back to the Senators at some point this season.


Price stopped 26 of 27 shots in the Canadiens win over the Panthers on Tuesday. It was the first Price-like performance since opening night and gives Price his second with in eight tries. The Canadiens have been getting unlucky to kick-off the season, but Price needs to be better and he will be in tough tonight vs. the Kings.

Price surrendered six goals on 45 shots in the Canadiens loss in Anaheim last Friday. It has been an absolutely disastrous start to the season for Price, who owns a 3.94 GAA and .881 SV% through seven starts. Obviously those are the worst numbers of Price’s career, but it can’t all be pinned on him. The Canadiens are in disarray right now and buying-low on the former Vezina winner might not be a bad idea.

Goodrow has yet to appear in a single game yet this season at any level. Last season he had just one assist in three games with the Sharks, but picked up 25 goals and 20 assists (45 points) in 61 games with the Barracuda (AHL).

Price allowed four goals on 34 shots in the Canadiens’ loss in San Jose on Tuesday. Al Montoya got the nod on Wednesday, so they’ll come back to Price tonight in Anaheim. It has been a terrible start to the year for Price and the Canadiens. The former Vezina winner has lost five consecutive games while allowing a whopping 17 goals on 120 shots (.858 SV%).
