Since the major announcement of general manager Kent Hughes concerning his goalie Carey Price, information is scarce in this file.
Yesterday, as reporter Eric Engels was answering questions from fans, he seemed to provide a very interesting piece of information.
Engels, who covers the Habs for Sportsnet, said this:
"I believe Carey is out of town for a while and when he returns, he will speak alongside Kent Hughes and a Canadiens doctor to explain his situation.
He will not play this season."
Just so you don't misinterpret the whole thing, see his full post:
The journalist seems to mention that we will soon have a big press conference with Carey Price, Kent Hughes and a team doctor.
This is consistent with the information we had and with what Hughes had mentioned last month.
If confirmed, it could be extremely interesting and we could learn a lot more about Carey's exact health (and future). This could be a defining press conference.
For those who were still hopeful, Engels makes it very clear that Price will not play this season.
However, let's remember that the number 31 will remain in the team's entourage, to help the youngsters and the organization in general. He will spend the year in Montreal with his family.
More details will follow!
