The problem with that is the next 4 years of cap should Price not get injured.
Nobody should be able to take a chance that they might be tying up 12 % of their goalies.
Price also looked better than he was with the Habs in these Playoffs because they bought into team defense in a 90-10 sort of way. Their best forward had 1 goal and 4 pts in 22 playoff games. That won't happen with a lot if any teams.
