Is anyone else as sick as I am at the constant Price ballwashing? "well they have Price so they can obviously win the next 4" "good luck winning 4 in a row against Price "Well Holtby/Bishop have been good but they're no Price" "We can't all have Carey Price on our team"
For the love of god. He has a .920 and 2.30. Holtby, Bishop and Lundqvist are all significantly better.
Price had a ridiculous regular season. He was the best goaltender during the regular season. No one is doubting that. But he has been between fine and good in the post season. He's not the reason they're losing by any stretch of the imagination but he's not stealing them any games either. He's let in 6 and 5 goals on two separate occasions and was part of a complete last second meltdown last night (not his fault at all, but again, he didn't stop it from happening).
I thought he was outplayed by Anderson in the games he started and has been consistently outplayed by Bishop. Holtby and Lundqvist are also putting up better numbers.
I don't dislike Price - he is a great goaltender. But for some reason his one amazing regular season is giving him a free pass to be meh in the playoffs and every is completely downplaying Holtby and Bishop's performances because "they're no Price." Imagine if Tuukka was posting a .920 or let in the goals Price was letting him - he'd be burnt at the stake. But for some reason if Price does it, a goaltender who has a history of crappy playoff performances, no one cares or talks about it. At the present moment, Carey Price is not the best goaltender in the world. *gasp*
anyway /end rant. I was just reading an article about it and was about ready to punch myself in the face. Figured you guys would understand.
Nice to see you here CamFan
