  • Former head therapist Dr. David Mulder revealed that Carey Price’s more serious knee injury was discovered while they operated on the goaltender for his injured meniscus. It turns out there was no cartilage left on his femur, which makes his performance in the 2021-22 playoffs even more impressive. [Canadiens: Carey Price Knee Injury More Serious Than Anticipated]

It will be a challenge for general manager Kent Hughes to trade one of his goaltenders for a reasonably healthy return. The Habs and the Edmonton Oilers briefly discussed a possible Jake Allen trade, but nothing official materialized. [The Habs’ Goaltending Situation In 2023-24]
