So much for joining a goaltending lineage that includes Jacques Plante, Ken Dryden and Patrick Roy.
A month or so after completing his run as arguably the signature player of the 2010 playoffs, the Montreal Canadiens have traded goaltender Jaroslav Halak to the St. Louis Blues for two prospects (Lars Eller and Ian Schultz).
In so doing, the Habs have opted to go with the younger, more inconsistent and also cheaper Carey Price who routinely was pulled and booed by Montreal's demanding fans. The Blues, meanwhile, make their first attempt to have an upper-tier goaltender since Curtis Joseph was in the nets some 15 years ago.
