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.
