The Montreal Canadiens paid out the final signing bonus of Carey Price\u2019s contract on Monday. Now that the $5.5 million bonus has been paid, Price carries a $10.5 million cap hit, but is only owed $2 million in salary. This makes him a perfect trade target for a team looking to reach the cap floor, such as the San Jose Sharks. [<\/a>Key Factors Regarding Potential Carey Price Trade<\/a>]<\/p>\n Speaking of a potential Price trade, his wife, Angela, quickly addressed the situation. When asked what she thought of the situation, Angela said, \u201c[We would] probably feel the same way most of Montreal would feel. But ultimately, you want what\u2019s best for the team.\u201d<\/p>\n As per usual, we need to take social media posts with a grain of salt, but it does give the impression that Canadiens management has already addressed the issue with the Price family, which is par for the course when we consider Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton prioritize honesty and open communication.<\/p>\n \u00abTu souhaites ce qui est le mieux pour l\u2019\u00e9quipe.\u00bb<\/p>\n Angela Price r\u00e9agit \u00e0 la possibilit\u00e9 que le contrat de son mari soit \u00e9chang\u00e9.

Okay, it was closer to one funny answer, and one serious answer.

Think of it, they\u2019ve never actually lived a life without hockey taking up the majority of their time, making retirement a rather frustrating situation at first.<\/p>\n Savard also happens to be one of the nicest guys who has ever played in the NHL. I\u2019d say he\u2019s right up there with Karl Alzner in terms of his affability.<\/p>\n Looks like David Savard was on the ice today in Brossard as a goalie wearing Sam Montembeault\u2019s mask \ud83d\ude05 pic.twitter.com\/xD5AzZbOvd<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 \/r\/Habs (@HabsOnReddit) September 1, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n National Hockey Now Network<\/p>\n Pens fans should celebrate Pittsburgh Penguins players who wore a bloody stripe on their nose the same way patches now adorn jerseys, and a scowl was imprinted upon former Penguins coach Mike Sullivan\u2019s face.

Another short offseason for the two-time defending Stanley Cup champions is about over with the Panthers holding rookie camp and starting up their prospect showcase in less than two weeks.
