IN THE HEARTS OF MEN Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Is Price a problem in 2019-2020? Games 1 to 5 Possibly (Except for 1 great game) Games 6 to 10 Not At All! (Except 1 bad game) 2019- no playoffs NO-Had a good season. Struggled mightily though to start season in Oct and November when team was actually playing well in front of him. Came out of the slump in early December and we saw vintage 2015 Price for a good stretch. 2018- no playoffs YES-Absolutly terrible (worst in the league... yes Com, even worse then Anderson's .898 to his .900%) which sparked this debate 2017- 1st round loss NO- Similar to 2019 only his game went off the rails late in February and continued to slide through March and April. 2016- not in playoffs -INJURED.... Huge problem! 2015 2nd round loss MVP Season It's safe to say Carey Price went through something. And his game was significantly effected by it. The issues in his game started late in the 2017 season and lasted ALL of 2018 and into the start of last season. The good news is something clicked during the holidays last year because his game took a huge upward swing in December. He had refound his lost game and had a spectacular more then 2nd half season. This season as early as it is, has shown a bit of Price in every year. The terrible and the spectacular. So far these last 5/6 games weve seen a much better Price then the guy who started the season. We can only hope Prices volatile past few years are truly behind him and he can put together some strong seasons and do something special to close out his career...

Schneider who admittedly is rated low isn’t even the starter in NJ. Similarly, holtby isn’t the best goalie anymore in Washington. i just to think Fleury is over-rated, but last three years he has been much better than price. insint think bobrasky is as high as they have him either.
