| Price is better then Conklin or Osgood for sure. I think they're definitely cup contenders but if the wings took Price off the Hab's hands...they'd be back to back to back champions. |

Becuase they still have a goalie that's worth his salary and i'm not talking about Osgood. |
Yes, I am implying that. |

I can think of at least 10+ better goalies than Price:
Nabokov
Turco
Luongo
Kipper
Backstrom
Mason
Anderson (colorado)
Thomas
Brodeur
Lundqvist
Smith
Fleury
Miller
Ward
The only reason price was in the allstar game is because of the throngs of drooling hab fanboys. |

I don't think Price was voted in only by fanboys - you have to admit, the kid has talent. It's a shame (for Habs fans - I was actually quite happy) that he had mainly an "off" season.
On another note... Price is really good looking. And everyone knows that makes up for any crappy mistakes/games he may have  |

I don't agree with the last statement as there were plenty of non-Montreal Canadiens voters.
The 10+ list is so-so. Khabibulin is better than half the goalies listed above and I think he's better than Price.
Who is good is all relative and can fluctuate on team chemistry, opposing team momentum, and just having a bad day. Jonas Hiller had his good days and bad days. Osgood had his good days and bad days. It just all fell into place, or out of place in the case of Hiller, when it came to the playoffs. |

Price is already a very good goalie but in time, he will get even better because he has a lot of qualities that will help him succeed in the NHL. He is calm, he has a really nice style and he has some good experience (gold medal with Team Canada, Calder cup champ with the Bulldogs). People complain about him because he went through some rough couple of months but like every other goalie, he is going to have some ups and downs. He is only 21 and has a lot of pressure on him here in Montréal, being the number 1 goalie and not having an older goalie to back him up but he can get though all that pressure and like he said "the only pressure i have is the one i put on myself". He will turn out to be a great goalie and will go far in the NHL.

True, he'll probably get traded, unfortunately, in the future when he's better. |

I think he still has a long time left with Montréal though because he is in their future plans. But he probably will get traded eventually

Yea I dont think that Pricey is gonna get traded with Bob Gainey being GM cause Gainey really likes him and trusts him as #1 goalie. So hes gonna be with the Habs for a while

Yeah, no doubt he will stick there 4 a while, but I dont think MTL is the Place 4 him....
