All goalies go through rough times and Price definitely had his last year.
Price goes through a rough time one year out of two.

Well.. Most years since Kreider..Price goes through a rough time one year out of two.
Said before the start of the season that CP was my biggest worry, still early but .904 save % from him not good enough
Niemi is better.not sure what careys problem is .i just dont see the elite compete level in him.he s too relaxed.and the his numbers reflect that.nope not nearly good enough, you can get that from a 4-5 mil goalie,
and niemi once again playing better then price behind the same team
Frankly I'm sad about this. I don't want to join a bandwagon of whiners about him but really, I don't believe in him anymore. For the money he is costing us I would rather ship him to Toronto and get Nylander and play Lindgren and Niemi instead.
Exactly... and it's going to be difficult for TO to trade Nylander and his 8mil asking figures.Lol, why would Toronto want Price? They are fine in net, Price would be no improvement,
Second, you don't get Nylander for Price, you may get Nylander for Price + Petry, but it's a moot point, Toronto have no need or want for Price

Interesting. For some reason I feel he isn't calm enough. In fact I see him jumpy and easily reactive to changing states during the play in the zone. Commits completely too early, or when it isn't necessary.Niemi is better.not sure what careys problem is .i just dont see the elite compete level in him.he s too relaxed.and the his numbers reflect that.

The Price hate is getting absurd. Don't care what the stats say, he has done everything you want him to do.
Leafs game, could have been MUCH worse, they literally score with their PP and Drouin cost the game with his OT decision.
Pens game, stellar.
LA game, bad 1st goal, other 2 were due to some AWFUL decision by Ouellette. Kept us in the game.
St.Louis game, stellar.
Sens game, bad game.
So that's 2 stellar games, 2 good games, and 1 bad game.
BTW, here is a look at some of the other goalies:
Holtby: 0.881
Bob: 0.876
Rask: 0.875
Hellebuyck: 0.914
Andersen: 0.910
Quick: 0.851
Jones: 0.907
Fleury: 0.901
Well I always read that "Oh a 2-5 million dollar goalie can replace Price" when lots of the other top goalies have been worse. So how else can you prove your point without comparing to other goalies?Yeah lets compare our selfes to others so we can feel better.

How is it cherry picking when it's against other top goalies? I would like to hear some names that you think are better than Price. Wait until Bob signs 9 million+, and Price's contract won't look as bad. It was the same thing with Subban. 9 seemed way too high, but other dmen signed big contracts after.What you're doing right nwo is cherrry picking stats that fit your bill.
When we're comparing Carey we're comparing him againts other top goalies in the past 5-10 years. if you do an avg you will see Carey is not worth the money.

He struggled last year, we get it...........he's been OK this year, but at 10.5M we are expecting more, but there are alot of players playing in the NHL this season, we are currently not earning their salary. It happens...........he was lights out when making 6.5M and most will tell you he was underpaid...What you're doing right nwo is cherrry picking stats that fit your bill.

From day 1? There was so much bs about him not being worth it at first. Maybe not you, but MANY here were upset with his cap hit. I love the "Price had 1 season" comment. You know that Price also had 1 bad season too right? Prior to last year, he was at the top in goalie stats since the Olympics.What? Subban was worth every single penny and more.
Price had 1 season. Any way we've beaten this horse so many times. Not worth wasting more internet bandwidth on this matter.
There are many nights, PK is not worth every penny...most night he is, but there are many he is not...include Toews, Giroux, Malkin etcWhat? Subban was worth every single penny and more.

If Price had just 1 good season, during the darkest year for the Habs, how is he about to tie Roy for the second most wins? How is he 26 away from Jacques Plante? He has had a ton of good seasons, and the rest of the league know, the Habs are Carey Price...he has been the only real star player we have had for years...
