Anyone has a gif or clip of "the smile"? I didn't catch it live
Pls don’t make me question your hockey knowledge, since you’ve forgotten more than I know...About time for Price to choke. He's widely inconsistent
I think both goals price would like to have back. The first goal I can’t blame him as there was a maze of players in front of him, but he never put himself in a good position to make the save. The 2nd one he has to have IMO. Other than that he made some huge saves that more than make up for it. Great game overall.
One of the best performance I saw from a goalie who played in the AHL with Bennington !It's a good thing we called him back from Laval just before the playoffs.

How great Price was so far in these playoffs.....
The second one I'm sure he wanted back. It's not a terrible goal but he's beaten cleanly on that one.I think both goals price would like to have back.

It has been a LOL moment on how the TO media were laughing on how Price went down for a conditioning stint, played two periods, allowed 2 goals.........and got himself ready for game action.If we win the cup and he wins the Conn Smythe - will it be the first time in history an AHL player to end the season gets called up and wins the smythe in the NHL playoffs?
He was clearly pissed off too.The second one I'm sure he wanted back. It's not a terrible goal but he's beaten cleanly on that one.

That’s kinda crazy. Joe Nieuwendyk was the worst selection in history. No way he should’ve won over Hasek.Not trying to jinx, just an observation. If Price wins the Conn Smythe and we win the cup, Price will become the only goalie in history to win every possible major award a goalie can win. Hasek is the closest but no Smythe.
Woooh never taught about that ! Not many player should have resume eitherNot trying to jinx, just an observation. If Price wins the Conn Smythe and we win the cup, Price will become the only goalie in history to win every possible major award a goalie can win. Hasek is the closest but no Smythe.

Another interesting award up for grabs is the Campbell conference title. It would be so cool if we won that.
He’s gotta have that one.The second goal Price moves slightly to his right because he expects Petry to block the shot and have the short side covered. Petry didnt block the shot and it finds a hole by his glove. Habs need to get to players in time or get out of the way. One of the Vegas players did that last night, didnt put his stick in the way because he knew he had Lehkonen I believe, funneled to one side and there was nothing to be done but let Fleruy make the save.
Yeah, it’s entirely theoretical and a massive long shot. Im not suggesting for a second that his first two rounds are the best ever either. What I was saying is that the path that lies ahead is going to be ridiculously hard.You've said in a few posts a few days back that if Price wins the smythe it's arguably the greatest smythe ever. And I wanted to reply to you and tell you you're out of your mind, it's only round 2, calm your horses, etc etc.
The Gretzky/Lemieux points are crazy. No doubt. But they never won with a crappy team either. There were no Cinderella wins for either of them. '93 would be the closest but they both won on stacked teams.But I didn't respond to those posts of yours, because after thinking about it I actually don't think you're that far off lol. For a goalie at least (give me the Gretzky/Lemieux stuff first). It comes down to the fact that I don't think there's ever been a Cinderella team that's gone all the way to win the cup before...if we win, we become the first. So many similar teams make it to the finals....but then lose. If we somehow won this year, by virtue of being the biggest cinderella run ever (and assuming Price continues to play strong, which he'd have to for us to win cup) - I think he'd have an argument for the best goalie performance ever in playoffs.
Which is pretty damn cool.
But of course - this still means nothing as of today. He's not even top 30 goalie performance all-time as of today, as round 2 still means nothing. So we'll have to wait and see
