Canadiens - Canucks Preview and can be seen here: RDS (HD), :canucks:'s PPV

With Price struggling, the Canadiens may go with Jaroslav Halak in goal again as they try to snap a 10-game winless streak against the Canucks on Sunday night.

Price is from Williams Lake, British Columbia, approximately 340 miles from Vancouver. This will be the first time Price will get a chance to face the Canucks (26-21-8), and the Canadiens (30-20-6) could certainly use a strong effort in goal.

Montreal is 0-8-1 with one tie against Vancouver since a 4-3 road win on Nov. 30, 2003. Price would normally be a lock to start this game, but he is 2-7-0 with a 3.87 goals-against average in his last 10 games after missing the Canadiens' previous eight contests with a lower body injury.

Luongo is 4-2-3 during that span but his GAA is 3.51. The veteran has been outstanding in his last three starts versus the Canadiens, though, going 2-1-0 with a 0.67 GAA.

Jason LaBarbera started against the Stars, making 28 saves, but Luongo will likely be back in net to face Montreal as the Canucks try to bounce back from their first loss in five games. They're in the middle of a closely contested Western Conference.
 
Other than the Colorado game, it seems like Habs fan have turned Edmonton, Calgary and I guarantee Vancouver into home games :D

Too bad they can't use it ot their advantage.
 
Edler is on a tear (as much as a d man can be). Hopefully he's gotten past the pressure of his big contract and can settle down and score some big goals and assist on a few as well.
 
Well that game made drinks at the bar with my brother that much more enjoyable. Another big win to temporarily moved the Canucks into 5th in the West.
On a side note My brother and I have our tickets for Tuesday nights divisional battle against as Matt so eloquently coined them the Lames;). If anyone else is going I'll be in section 205 row 17 seat 41. Oh yeah I'll be the guy in the vintage wool Canucks jersey hooting and hollering... just kidding... well kind of.
 
What a great game. Hopefully we string a few more of these together.

An i'm kinda surprised no one has mentioned Kostitsysns slew foot on Burrows. hopefully the league comes down on him for his actions. Could have taking Luongo out again.
 
I was reading about that on the Canucks message baords, damn, can't believe no one did anything about it. Habs better watch out next game though. Burrs won't forget.
