Carey Price takes a big step in recovery from knee surgery
Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price is still determined to return to the crease this season. The Anahim Lake native has yet to play during the 2021-22 season due to having knee surgery in the off-season, a few setbacks in his rehab, as well as entering the NHL/NHLPA Player Assistance Program back in October for a month.
According to Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports, Price has made significant progress in his recovery from knee surgery.
The following is translated from French
"Carey's not doing well just a little...He's doing great! Today he got shots in practice and he was on the ice for 45 minutes. We are no longer talking about the small 10-15 minute sessions of a few weeks ago! All of which means that unless the swelling comes back, Carey Price will be playing hockey this year." He said.
Lavoie added, "He has reached another level in his rehabilitation. Previously, his knee was far too swollen for him to go there. The goal for Carey Price is a return to play somewhere in April. We still have time, but Carey really wants to play hockey in April."

Price, 34, has four more years on his contract following the 2021-22 season with a cap hit of $10.5 million. It'll be interesting to see if Price is apart of Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton's plans for the future, with the Canadiens set to embark on a rebuild.
