MONTREAL CANADIENS SEASON PREVIEW


With the 2009-2010 season just around the corner, the Montreal Canadiens are expected to rebound off a bad season with help from there number 1 goalie Carey Price. In game 4 of the 1st round series of the playoffs between Montreal and Boston, the Canadiens were down 4-1 in the 3rd period and Price raised his arm's when' the Hab fan's jeered him just like Patrick Roy did."We had two frustrated parties and maybe the choices weren't the best, but you know, it's going to happen," said Price. "Sometimes I'm going to get it, sometimes a player shouldn't give it back but sometimes it happens." Price also said that he is ready to move on."I don't think I've ever been put in a situation that I can't handle.I've never backed down from a challenge and this year I'm not going to start."

With Jacques Martin putting together the first line of Mike Cammalleri,Brian Gionta and Scott Gomez, the Canadiens should have lots of offense this season."We both know that me and Gionta have something to prove this season," Gomez Said." There's no better place to prove yourself but in Montreal." So if you look at the Canadiens roster you will see that the Habs will finish in 3rd place in Eastern Conference.
