Shootout loss to Tampa which we had no business going to the SO with. The one point was ALL Carey. 44 saves on 45 shots...it was easily one of the greatest goaltender performances I can remember watching.

Re: Carey Price
I wouldn't go so far as to say he's a Hart contender. I just think giving goalies the Hart is a really bad idea; considering goaltending is the most important and valuable position in the game, they might as well give it to a goalie every single year, which would be silly. In rare, exceptional cases, it is reasonable to give it to a goalie, Hasek and Al Rollins were perfect axamples. Theodore was not, and great as he was that year had absolutely no business being named the league's MVP.
That said, yeah, Price is the pretty clear favorite for Vezina and Team Canada starter right now. Keeping in mind it is still less than a third of the way through the season.
Maybe if he keeps up these kinds of numbers and gets the Canadiens into the playoffs, he might be worth considering for the Hart.
