Carey Price was at it again -- this time against the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday.
The Habs netminder made two terrific blocker saves on Conor Sheary in the first period, stopping the Penguins forward’s initial shot from the slot thanks to his quick reaction, and then having the awareness to acrobatically bat the puck out of mid-air and out of his crease.
Were these two quick saves as good as his stick stop on Ondrej Palat the other night? Feel free to debate.
But against a high-scoring Penguins team, Price was very sharp early. And that’s all that matters for the Habs.
