Samuel Montembeault watched this encounter at the end of the bench in the number two role.
Today, Montembeault is aiming to officially become the team’s starting goaltender, while Price is technically retired.
“He has a good attitude,” Price said of him. I haven’t worked with him much, but I’ve gotten to know him over the last two years. Sam has a good attitude towards everything, he also has a good foundation. In my opinion he has the personality to play in a market like this. To be a goalkeeper in Montreal you need the right personality. »
“You can become a number one goalie in the NHL at any stage,” Price continued. It mostly depends on your level of consistency. It’s an exciting time in his career, he can be the number one goalie for the Montreal Canadiens.”
