- Carey Price à Washington....
- Une rumeur MOINS TRENDY qu'Edmonton ou Colorado..
- Mais qui fait de plus en plus son chemin...
- Selon le réputé journaliste Dan Rosen...
Price has to come back and prove effective again. He's coming off knee surgery and was in the NHL/NHLPA Player Assistance Program for substance use. A trade might not happen until the offseason.
The Edmonton Oilers should be in the market for Price at half the cost. Goaltending is an issue for them, and Price, if healthy, solves it, especially if he costs a reasonable $5.25 million for four years.
I think the Washington Capitals should be interested. It's hard right now to buy Ilya Samsonov or Vitek Vanecek as a long-term solution when they're trying to win the Stanley Cup before the window closes with forwards Alex Ovechkin and Nicklas Backstrom.
Same with the Avalanche for the reasons I mentioned above, even if they can't get Price this season. Price is in control with his no-move clause protection, but he should be willing to waive it if he can go to a team that will contend faster than the Canadiens will.
