then why is gally still here?
Gally is not a star like PK and Chelios
then why is gally still here?
the rumour about Coreys wife is BSChelios was driven out of town due to... well, desire, indeed.
But you may safely drop the "to win" part.
He was the man in April 84 play offs. Came to camp fat and out of shape in September.Penney came out of nowhere and faded nearly as quickly. I went to the Good Friday game and he was brilliant. Two or three years later I went to the Forum and watched Roy and the Habs dismantle Penney and the Jets. It was stunning how brief Penney's career arc was.
I like Price but his career is just not in the same league as the great before him.I was too young to remember much of Roy, Price is my favourite current Habs player though and has been since he was a rookie. I'm excited to see him bounce back next year!
I've seen worst goaltending. Early on it was bad (atrocious), but he got "mid range" afterward. I'd say he is a great goalie, not the best one... but still an elite one. Sure, season to season consistency has always been an issue for him..huh?....have you seen him play THIS SEASON?

so why are we paying a "mid range" goaltender 10+ million dollars a season, when he is not even performing as well as most 5 million dollar goalies?
MB should be fired on the Price contract alone.....and I can't believe Molson would agree to this contract when he is all about money
Price is above mid-range, in the past 5 seasons he has 3 where he's finished top-5 in Vezina voting
who cares what he has done in the past?....and who cares about individual awards!!....what is he doing for the team now?.....NOTHING!!
I would rather have a goalie who gets us a cup and never won a single individual award
and no, he is not above mid-range.....he is mid-range AT BEST!....currently ranked almost 70th in the LEAGUE among all active goaltenders.....that is far from mid-range!!
So what would be your solution? Try and trade him away instead of giving him a chance to bounce back? Should we do that with every goalie who ever has a below-average season for our team?
Contracts are going upmy solution was to trade him YEARS AGO!!....that was the solution!!
MB should be tarred and feathered for this contract....this is WORSE then the god damn Gomez trade!!!
it's been 10 freakin years of Price and we have accomplished NOTHING!!!!
it's god damn time to MOVE ON!!...for both Price and the team!!
this team will never win anything with Price here!!....i said that over 7 years ago....and i stand by it today!!
has any team ever won the cup after a goalie has been playing for the team for over 10 years?......NO!!!!....and Price aint gonna change history!!
Might as well go full rebuild
In 86 he was a rookie and basically stole the series against the Rangers, remember all of the saves in MSG in overtime? They should have won in 89 but the hockey Gods were smiling on Lanny Macdonald. I am not referring to Colorado, we never had anything like Sakic, Forsberg and company.
We've been spoiled with goalies. That's been one constant with this franchise. For whatever reason, goalies tend to pull at or above their weight here, and I've been a fan of alot of them.
Roy, Hackett, Theodore, huet, halak, and price all fit the list.
Does our luck run out eventually? What our fanbase needs is to go threw what Toronto did from 05-16. We just expect good goaltending now. One guys amazing, he falls off and the next guy is waiting. Our time will come. Those 24 cups came at a price.
