With Halak being pulled in Game 3 after giving up 3 goals on 13 shots, there is a lot of questioning about who will start for Montreal in Game 4. When Price came in he played great and he made 21 saves on 23 shots.“Our goalie situation isn’t what our problem is right now. With either of them in there we have a chance to win every night,” said Martin. “If you look at how this series has unfolded so far, goaltending isn’t the reason we find ourselves behind today. For tomorrow’s game, I’ll figure out who is the best one to get the start.”
But if you compare Price to Halak, Halak has better stats than Price. Carey Price played in 41 games and he had 13 wins 20 losses and 5 overtime losses with 0 shutouts for the first time in his 3 season career. Then if you look at Jaroslav Halak, he has played in 45 games and he has 26 wins, 13 losses and 5 overtime losses with 5 shutouts (his career high). Now lets look at playoff stats. In just 6 playoff games, Halak has 1 win (game 1 v.s the Caps) and 3 losses. As for Price, he has played in 16 games and he had 5 wins and 10 losses with 1 shutout. I think Montreal will go with Price in game 4.
