I wonder how annoyed Jake Allen is about this?

Now he's stuck behind Price for how many more years?

 

Allen earned his contract as the Blues starter but he struggled with the pressure.  He was given several leaves of absence to get a break.  He seems more at ease in a backup role.

Or it could be  management thinks he choked in the finals and asked him to wave
 

fact is we don’t know the reason behind this move 

I think Price probably realizes that was his last real shot at a cup in Montreal and is okay to move closer to home.

It could also go badly for them.

 

Price could struggle behind a less defensive team.

 

I hope it happens.

You say this as if Montreal's defense are Nashville levels of deep. Price is 90% of the reason they made it to the Finals. Him going to Seattle would be bad news for us. They are likely gonna draft a better team than Montreal had this past season.

Montreal had one of the most balanced D in the league. 
 

They were deep and very underrated.

The best case scenario for Canucks fans would be Seattle taking him and him struggling away from Montreal while they’re tied to his huge contract. 
 

Also him keeping them just good enough to miss out on a good pick. :bigblush:

That's so deliciously evil. I LIKE IT!

Price’s wife tweeting to not worry and that everything would make sense soon.

 

Speculation is Montreal is going to pay to have Seattle pick someone else.
 

They chose Allen to protect because Seattle would be more inclined to take him therefore compensation would be higher.

I'm hoping Price stays in Montreal and Seattle picks Holtby, but I guess if Seattle picks Price then we could trade Holtby hopefully

Itll be funny if Sea now takes him.

These hockey wives are getting way too involved.
