The Montreal Canadiens may not have an abundance of assets up for trade this year, but they’ll have plenty of cap space to get creative. Unlike last season, general manager Kent Hughes came into this season without having to put Carey Price on LTIR during the offseason.
The Montreal Canadiens counted upon Carey Price’s excellence to mask a lot of issues within the team. For years, he was the main reason the team found some semblance of success, a difficult task that would eventually end his career early due to a lack of cartilage between his knee and his femur.
The Montreal Canadiens still have goaltender Carey Price on the roster, technically speaking. He has once again been placed on the long-term injured reserve, but there’s little to no chance he will return to action due to the severity of his knee injury.
The Montreal Canadiens are still using LTIR this season to ice their roster, but they’re in a much better place than a year ago. A year ago, the Canadiens needed to put Carey Price on Long-Term Injury Reserve (LTIR) prior to the start of the season after the acquisition of Sean Monahan.
Often, in the world of professional sports, loyalty and dedication seem hard to find. However, Montreal Canadiens goalie Carey Price embodies both these qualities to the fullest.

Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price has provided a significant, but not entirely unexpected update on the current state of his career and his ongoing battle with a nagging knee injury.
In his prime, Carey Price sparked debates about whether he was the best hockey player in the world. Now, it’s likely it will debated where Price ranks among the NHL’s best after the 36-year-old goaltender all but confirmed a lingering knee injury has ended his NHL career.

In recent developments reported by Marc Dumont of MONTREAL HOCKEY NOW and based upon comments made by Montreal Canadiens general manager Kent Hughes on Tuesday, the Canadiens are playing with a few ideas and trying to find ways to work a tricky salary cap situation into their favor.
During the 2005 NHL Draft, the Montreal Canadiens selected goaltender Carey Price fifth overall in a decision that was met with immediate scrutiny. Nearly a decade and a half later, he stands alone as one of the greatest goaltenders in modern-day Canadiens’ history.
