Price becomes 3rd Canadiens goalie with three 35-win seasons
by Cory Wilkins from on (#2HG0A)
Carey Price is climbing the ranks.
The Montreal Canadiens netminder set another high mark following Tuesday's victory over the Dallas Stars. The win was Price's 35th on the season, and he became just the third goaltender in team history to pull off that feat three times:
| Goalie | 35+ Win Seasons | Last | Franchise Wins |
|---|---|---|---|
| Jacques Plante | 4 | 1961-62 | 314 |
| Ken Dryden | 4 | 1977-78 | 258 |
| Carey Price | 3 | 2016-17 | 268 |
It's been a season of accolades for the franchise netminder. Last month, Price leapfrogged Dryden for third all time on the franchise wins list. He now ranks behind only Plante and Patrick Roy.
