Carey Price Returning to the Crease on Wednesday
7 years agoMontreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price will make his first start since returning from injury on Wednesday night against the Pittsburgh Penguins. Price dressed, but did not play, in Monday’s game against the Florida Panthers. This will be Price’s first game action since suffering a concussion on Feb. 20. Montreal is in the middle of a three-game losing streak and have been held scoreless in each of their last two games. Montreal’s offense is likely to wake up at some point, but it is not an encouraging trend for anyone looking to get a win from Price. Further downgrading Price’s outlook is the fact he is facing a Penguins team that scores 3.26 goals per game, which is sixth best in the league. It is encouraging to get Price back, but he has been having a down year, and that is unlikely to change now that he has returned.
