Ah yes the assault rifle, traditional hunting weapon of First Nations people.

Good one

Ah yes the assault rifle, traditional hunting weapon of First Nations people.

I'd never heard of this org before, but it sure looks like Canada's NRA. People are justified in side-eyeing his support, the NRA is a trash organization responsible for lots of suffering south of the border.

Price is of course entitled to his views, he's probably just a hunting enthusiast and not an all-out gun nut, but maybe don't be surprised when you share this on Instagram and it gets backlashed???

Yeah but the logo, the ak47 associated with the Can flag and the no compromise, it looks like the north version of the nra. Price should be more careful with that. We all know street gangs are getting more dangerous, shootings happening every week ( a 17yr old today in Laval) and these guns enters by the native reserve border of usa, ontario and Qc, like quebecers says, "il devrait se garder une tite gêne". But I'm sure Price is not aware of that, he lives in a bulb, his mind is in his forest in BC, he lives here in Qc like in an hotel. Not his fault.

More numbers showing Price has been strong on high danger chances this year. Those softies hurt.

What's really killed his numbers though is the PK. We are getting killed there. If we were just average there his number would be .917. If we want to go anywhere in the postseason we need to fix that.

By the numbers: Metrics show Canadiens better off with Price in net | Montreal Gazette

Our PK is so passive compared to the other teams.......we stay in a small box, and other teams pick it apart.
The coaches have to address this, and make it a more aggressive pressure the puck carrier into making a mistake type of PK.

We also have a shitty D overall. Needs to be fixed.

Very hopeful, there will be one more add from MB.

Great to see Price get his first shutout, even if it was an easy one.
He end the month of March with a record of 6-1-2 and a 93.1%

He got lucky on the offside. That's okay though, he's had enough bad luck this season to more than make up for it. Should've had a shutout a couple of times already. Tonight was probably the easiest shutout of his career.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Let's move on from the gun thing. It's OT.

The haters will not like your posting some reality...
We all know Price needs to play a bit more, but Allen has still been very good, with almost no run support.
Any way we slice it, with 24 games remaining, the Habs probably have the best duo to handle the load.

The PK isn't so passive anymore. It's been evolving since the coaching change.

True enough, it has gotten a little more aggressive towards the puck carrier....

We have 23 games left before da playoff..................Price should play how many? He needs games to get in a groove.
Thinking he should play 15-16 of the remianing games.
Glad the February Funk is gone...

All depending on how goes the rest of the season. I mean if we are in a position that we can rest him before the playoff, it won't be a bad thing.

 

[BLONG7]

Crickets from the haters this morning..............held us in the game, and the team finally picked him up after the high-light reel save.
Are the haters even habs fans? Hard to believe.
Nice game from the entire team! Glad to move on from the Sens flop.

 

[BehindTheTimes]

Good game from Price last night. He gave them a chance to win and they did. Not thrilled with the KK usage, hopefully it’s not a sign of things to come.

 

[Sterling Archer]

Any news on how long his injury will be?

 

[expy]

Interim coach says that Price will be on the ice at practice on Wednesday.

Crappy that he gets hurt just as he was heating up though.

Whatever, he can use the remaining games as a tuneup for the playoffs. I think it's going to be a huge challenge beating the Leafs even if Price plays at his best. They're stacked up front.

He wasn’t heating up. He was struggling. .874 save percentage and 4 or more goals in 3 of his last 5 starts. Hopefully the time off can help him reset a bit.

He was 6-1-2 in March...1 SO He was playing better.....
Obviously there is an issue with a injury.....let's hope he gets that cleared up. He has to bring it down the stretch and for da playoff!
