Chris Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 That was one ugly period. The habs D zone is awful, could they be any softer in front of the net. Price is sleep walking, i yank him. And yet somehow it's tied with a chance to win. That's a positive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habopotamus Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Price atleast 3 goals in each of last 5 games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlbalr Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 That's a memorable first Montreal goal for Peca. No sniping it top corner there. I wonder if they'll consider pulling Price at the intermission. The problem is Niemi hasn't looked much better (the first half of Monday wasn't pretty) and Buffalo popped four on him two weeks ago.

Chris Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Niemi only has 1 loss, at least he looks like he tries Price needs a wake up call 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trizzak Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 ####ing pull him. I don't care how many aren't his fault. Fourth straight start with at least 4 goals against. Edit: And if it's all on the players then send that message now with a mercy pull. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Its' terrible defense more than goaltending. I'm not saying Price has been great, but alot goals this year he has no chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year, it's 3.08 (which may be going up slightly tonight). And make it 8 on Boston now which is nice to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brobin Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Price should have been traded while he had some value. He is too expensive even if he was playing decently. He isn’t.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 3 on 1 habs cant hit the net, Price can't stop a beach ball. That guy needs to sit for a few Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trizzak Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 If Julien has any balls he'll rip Price a new one to the media. The usual nonchalance attitude from Price doesn't work for me when he's slumping that ####ing bad, and he needs to feel a bit of heat.
