Stanley Cup(s), Not Regular Season Wins
Oh it is nice for the fine goaltender Carey Price to have tied the great Ken Dryden for third place in regular season wins as a Montreal Canadiens’ goaltender.
Of course Price will pass Dryden, likely Patrick Roy and even Jacques Plante in that category.
However, will he ever win one Stanley Cup, no less the six won with Montreal by Dryden, the five, all in succession by Plante (’56-’60) or the two by Roy with the Habs. The latter also won the only two in Colorado Avalanche history.
Roy also has the only two Montreal goaltending Cup wins in the 36 completed seasons (’80-’16, no season in ’05) since the once glorious Canadiens titled an incredible 15 times in 24 seasons, five eighths of those 24 seasons from (1956-1979).
Maybe the problem is above.
