Poll: Did the Canadiens overpay Price?
Geoff Burke / Reuters
Carey Price is arguably the best goalie on the planet, and on Sunday, the Montreal Canadiens made sure he was paid as such.
Habs general manager Marc Bergevin inked his franchise netminder to an eight-year deal worth a reported $84-million at an annual average value of $10.5 million, making Price - who will be 30 on Aug. 16 - the highest-paid goalie in the NHL.
Quite simply, is he worth it?
