sirwilliam Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Now THAT is a smart contract term to give a #1 goalie. I wish 6 years max was our team policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lonny_Bohonos_14 Posted July 2, 2012 Author Share Posted July 2, 2012 CapGeek @capgeek #Canadiens Carey Price's new cap hit is No. 3 among #NHL goaltenders http://www.capgeek.com/leaders.php?type=CAP_HIT&position=G&limit=25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwijibo Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Price is only 24 and will still be in his prime when the contract ends. He wouldn't have accepted a b.s. front load contract that only paid him a fraction of the cap hit in the last few seasons. Couple that with the higher taxes in Quebec and $6.5 million seems about right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
