Fat Tony Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Yeah its possible but I doubt it. Are you sure you don't want to reconsider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTH Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 It'll be interesting to see how Price reacts to receiving sole possession of the #1 job, how Halak responds to finally becoming a permanent on the NHL team and how Danis responds to finally being given a chance to prove himself (it's a bit harsh for a guy who earned himself a callup a couple of seasons ago, to still be playing back-up at the AHL level, especially to guys a few years younger than him).

lazy26 Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Price will get the start against Buffalo on Friday. From TSN Ice Chips: Carey Price will get the start in goal on Friday in Buffalo. Carbonneau said he'll see how Price plays before deciding on his starter for Saturday's home game vs. New Jersey. Carbonneau says Jaroslav Halak will definitely get some work 'in the next little while.'... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halak is still undefeated at the Bell centre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halak is still undefeated at the Bell centre. Should Price have a good or great game and emerge with a W I would think he would get both games.

SAKS-AVENUE Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 (edited) That's what I would've done. I'd give Halak the game against NJ because that's the one at home. Just for that reason alone I'd let the kid play. As far as Price goes....even if we lose at Buffalo, I won't blame him, it seems we always have a tough time with the Sabers in their building and it never means anything anyway. If we win, I'd still give Halak a go at the devils.....that kid must be ready to kill. He has been shit on for too long, plus he's really good. GO HALAK GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You are probably right, and Carbo will go with Price, but just for kicks I would love to see Halak. He's great! He's hungry! He's ready! and He's unbeaten at the phone booth. A recipe for a WIN no matter how you want to look at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy Carbonneau a déjà indiqué qu'il fera appel à la même formation. Price entreprendra donc un troisième match de suite depuis le départ de Huet.

JMMR Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Well you know......Some in these threads might get a little concerned our bouncy baby boy might be a little tired. Yeah last year he really got tired after his WHL season and the WJC's he was spent before he got to Hamilton. How many games did he play last year 100?

How many games did he play last year 100? I'll bet Price will be one of those goalies that the more he plays the better he is. If you sit him is when he starts to have problems. In the last twenty years has any goalie played the entire season? I know Nabokov has played a lot and Kipper...but entire seasons? Watch Price get 60+ next year.

That would not work both of them would struggle. Golies like Brodeur, Luongo, Kipper and Nabakov would play much worse if they played less I hope Price is the same.

alexstream Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 You can also confirm 13-14 of the other 15 games... I'm pretty sure that Halak will only play once or twice just to "keep him warm"... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only to keep him warm, but to be sure he doesn't leave the team this summer like perezhogin?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesgm Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 I could honestly care less if Jaroslav leaves (if Price is able to play 65-75 games) because if he plays that amount of games and wins 40-50 of them who really gives a crap what the back-up does? Sign Joe Shmo to the smallest contract allowed and as long as the habs can pull 5 or 6 wins out of this "shitty" goalie then we are still in the playoffs and likely in good position. IMHO we should consider trading Halak for an Impact player for next season, package him with a prospect or something...like Fischer! Price has shown that when he is number 1, he is dominant.....he did it in hamilton, he did it in Tri-cities and he did it in thew WJC. Now he is doing it in Montreal. HE struggled when he had to sit, it is obvious he is going to be a good #1 goalie potentially a star with a ceiling of a generational goalie!

Who exactly are you going to put in net should Price go down with an injury? or better yet a career threatening injury? Joe Shmo? Halak has a small contract, and he is an incredible goalie. Can't say, I get your reasoning in any way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
