Lmao. Ice Bergys biggest mistake is Prices contract but its actually not his fault. Nothing is ever his fault. Teflon Bergy according to some
"Its me but i wouldnt change a thing and Prices injury makes it not my fault"

Carey Please :)
I Really don't like the decision here. It's like best case for Price is that he looks like old Carey but that's just bad news for us in terms of the draft. If Price looks bad it helps us tank but looks worse for him and the team... should've just sat out for the rest of the season and tried to rebound next year. I think he can bounce back but man I don't like the idea of him coming back this season.

Julien sounded pretty defensive when questioned with his return. Said he feels it’s sending the wrong message to the team to sit an athlete like Price 100% healthy and ready to compete. Either way, from a fan standpoint it’s a losing situation. If he plays well, he’s wrecking the tank and if he gets lit up, people will be all over him. Either way, I don’t think he really cares.
Yes and Teows delivered at a time when it counted. Over and over.
Easier to take his contract.
We'd be a better team with Toews and a 6.5m goalie than we would with price and a 6.5m center.
You know what a mess your organization is when its all but agreed your best player and mvp should just go start his summer.......in March! For that to be even considered, the teams games have to be completely inconsequential in the NHL picture. Normally it would be absolutely ridiculous to even consider telling an elite player "dont worry about it, see ya next season"
But MB has created an organization and atmosphere where that is being considered the smart way to go.
Good job. This must be the" vision" he and his entourage have been referring to lo these many years.
Typical of Montreal these days.....another lose / lose situation.

What's Crawford's situation? We could send them Carey and Max in exchange for him and JT.

Return of Montreal Canadiens Carey Price Shows True Leadership - Last Word on Hockey
Doesn’t necessarily help the tank, but great to see that he’s healthy!

Coming back when he's healthy doesn't show "true leadership", it's not optional. It's his job. You play when you're healthy, it's that simple. You don't get to sit out the rest of the season because the team sucks.

Real leadership? It's an assinine decision.
Since it is Price who asked to play, the only two reasons I can see why is either he's misguided or wants to show he's still got it because he wants to be traded.

Price has been the tank commander! Whatchu talking bout! Niemi's numbers have been way better. Neimi is definitely not the better goalie but he has been giving us a chance to win most games, and that is not acceptable. Price with Lindgren as his deputy tank commander have been brilliant in finding way's to loose.
God knows price will come in and play lights out the rest of the year though. Don't do it Price.

Or he's a professional athlete and wants to play hockey. The players don't want to lose.

The F***?!!!???!!? True leadership?? He's being paid 10 million a year and he's coming back to do his job?
After taking half the year off for illness already? I can't even believe this article. This isn't amateur hour you can't just not come back because you don't feel like it. He's a professional athlete.
Whoever wrote this is a true moron.

He could still sit out for the sake of a healthy future. That's professional too....

Pretty much.
But we shouldn't be playing him. Zero upside. Games are meaningless and he's coming of a concussion. Doesn't make sense to play him now as far as I'm concerned.
Next time I get the flu, I will demand an appreciation of my leadership when I come back to work again!
