Value of: What would it take to unload the horrific, abysmal, terrible Price contract.

[Zahra Starker]

He sucks. Plain and simple he's just not a good goaltender.
Ive been defending Price for years and he had so many excuses for not playing well. He doesn't get enough rest or the the habs D sucks or he doesn't try because he knows the habs aren't going anywhere.

He's been awful for a few years now and I can count on two hands the amount of good saves he has made this season. Plain and simple he has 2 great saves the entire season and has let in about 15 softies that even AHL goaltenders could save.

He can't track a puck to save his life. A puck could go left and he will slide right. Every time he plays the puck it leads to the other team having a chance. If price is worth 10.5 then Markstrom should be making 100million a year and Jake Allen should be making around 80 million.

Ive watched every single habs game for the past 8 years and he sucks.

 

[Prairie Habs]

I think its bedtime there champ...

 

[Buzzman17]

I’d take him on the leafs at 50 percent retained. What would it take ? Andersen plus?

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Why do I get the sense that if he didn't lose tonight this thread wouldn't exist

 

[Richard88]

His numbers at 5v5 are pretty good:

0.921 sv%
1.93 GAA
0.61 GSAA
0.889 HDSV%

He's been absolutely woeful on the PK though:

0.815 sv%
11.87 GAA (that's not an error)
-2.37 GSAA
0.778 HDSV%

Maybe Montreal should just have Price play at 5v5 and stick Allen in net whenever they're shorthanded.

OP is right, he sucks.

You can literally see he's ridding out his contract. Set for life for him, his kids and grandkids

Price

[Jumptheshark]

Didnt some hab fans say he could get the Hart and Vezina about a week ago on the general board?

i still wouldnt. he has 5 years left after this.

LOL wouldn't surprise me. So habs fans will defend him even if he finishes the season with a 0.800 SV %

On the main board a week or 2 ago we had several threads on how great the habs were

 

[SomeDude]

Habs fans supplying the HFboards entertainment tonight.

Pens offer Matheson. Since Price is so terrible, Pens also get a 1st for taking the albatross contract.

 

[gstommylee]

Umm not sure if OP realizes Price has a no move clause in his contract.

I would easily pay a 1st+ to get rid of that contract but that Matheson contract is even worst.

He doesn’t suck wtf lol

When the highest paid goalie in the league isn’t even top 20 in any goalie category, then you have a problem. I like Price, nothing against him personally, but he’s getting paid like he won Montreal a couple of cups. I just don’t get it.

His contract sucks for sure.

 

[GreatSaveLuongo]

1:1 for Bobrovsky

 

[Chabot84]

Neal + Mike Smith for Price

 

[MattySnipes]

It'll be very hard to unload that. Just stick it out. He's a good goalie but your team defense isn't helping much tbh. Guys like Edmundson and Chiarot are not it.

I would say starts atleast at probably Caulfield, 1st round pick +.

Dont see Habs letting Price or Gally go. They'll be career Habs.

If Pri5e wasn't in net tonight, Leafs would've scored another 6 goals.

 

[Troy]

Lol. Its whats in front if Price thats the problem

 

[razor8]

Lol. Its whats in front if Price thats the problem

Then why pay him 10.5 mil?

Price + 1st for Halak

I’m assume this isn’t your idea of a sales pitch and you’re just ranting.
