What happend in 2010 and 2013 then?
2010 he got out classed by Halak
2013 Budaij played better than Price, we finished 2nd because of him rather than 7th or 8th.
There's also the time with Huet.
Then there's a time after the 10.5 contract he was letting in 5 goals a night.
Why are we turning a blind eye on the bad moments?
No blind eye man.........Huet and Price were team mates when the kid was a rookie.....45-50 games so that is stupid on your part.
2010 yes, Halak stole the net for a couple of weeks in Price's second year in da playoff......Halak had a nice run, he was 9-9 with a 2.55 GA and a .923 sv percentage......third round Halak shit the bed, but was very good for 2 rounds, or 3 weeks...
You are out to lunch with the Budaj talk.....Budaj had 10 wins that season and Price had 39.....
These were times when Price was a kid, and learning the NHL game.
Once taking over, he was more often than not..... amazing, on a shit team......with a shit GM and coaches, more often than not.
Every team in the league wanted a Price on their team......that simple.
Perfect? Of course not.................just amazing for the most part.
He was crowned the most perfect technical goalie in the NHL for years, and goalie coaches then changed their technique to follow Price's game............
Hall of Fame first ballot goaltender......................as for the sweater, hanging, maybe maybe not.....I can tell you right now, he could care less and probably would rather not have it hanging......he knew all he cared about was a Cup banner.
