Canadiens' Price pulled in Game 1 after allowing 4 goals in 2 periods
Eric Bolte / USA TODAY Sports
Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price had a rough outing in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Final on Saturday, and was ultimately replaced for the third period by Peter Budaj after allowing four goals against on 20 shots faced.
There was some additional concern for Price's health, as the star goaltender and Canadian Olympian was bowled into by big New York Rangers forward Chris Kreider in the second period, and initially appeared to be injured.
While Price was briefly examined by Canadiens trainers, he remained in the game, although he allowed two goals in the last 61 seconds of the second frame.
