Alumni Update: Carey Price

CAREY PRICE. Looks like the former Ams goaltender may finally be stepping up to the role he was supposed to continue after his phenomenal NHL rookie season, backstopping for the Montreal Canadiens. The game last night between Montreal and Philadelphia was on VS. and not being a Canadiens fan myself, I still always hope that Americans alum always do well. I watched most of the third and I gotta tell ya, Price sure looks different this year, maybe because Halak isn't there to compete with him. Here's the game recap from Montreals site:

MONTREAL (AP) -Carey Price made 41 saves for his third shutout, Brian Gionta had a goal and two assists, and the Montreal Canadiens extended their winning streak to four with a 3-0 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday night.
Carey Price (#31) Makes one of his 41 saves in a 3-0 shutout.
Price stopped 13 shots in the first and 20 more in the second on his way to his seventh career shutout, his second in four games. He stopped 34 shots one week earlier in a 2-0 win over Vancouver which began Montreal's current streak.  (canadiens.nhl.com)
