I think Halak will get more starts if Price plays poorly. I don't think Price was as bad as a lot of us say though. In round 2 vs Flyers, Biron won, Price didn't lose. We couldn't score on him. Price wasn't unbelievable, and let in a few softies, but Biron's stellar tending was the difference, not Price's weaker one. Last season, he came back from his injury too early. Plain and simple. I think it was a mistake to not send him to Hamilton for conditioning. As for the second half, you saw the whole team crumble, so that is not really a fair assessment. Having said all this, to hell with official starter status. Play the better goalie at the time. If Halak is playing well and Price is not, you play Halak. That's it. I have seen times when this should have happened, and who knows, maybe it will pay off.
