Price bounces back as Canadiens beat Capitals 2-1
WASHINGTON — Don’t look now, but Carey Price is hard to beat when he’s angry.
Mad at himself, his teammates and “everybody” for getting pulled the previous night, Price made a statement in his return to the net as the Montreal Canadiens snapped the Washington Capitals’ winning streak at six with a 2-1 victory Saturday night.
Price stopped 20 of the 21 shots he faced in a better effort by the 2014-2015 Vezina Trophy-winning goaltender and his entire team than they displayed Friday in a lackluster loss to the San Jose Sharks.
