Carey Price may miss significant portions of next season with hip injury/surgery. Hence Montreal's gamble.
Quote:
Sources say there are significant concerns about Price’s health moving forward that may (or may not) deter the Kraken from selecting the Anahim Lake, British Columbia native. An MRI recently conducted by the Canadiens revealed a hip injury that could require surgery. The true extent of the injury is not yet known – and likely will not be known until later in the week, when Price travels to the United States to be seen by an expert. The results of the examination might not be available until Friday, after Seattle selects its team on Wednesday
