The Montreal Canadiens are ready to welcome goaltender Carey Price back to the lineup.
After the club sent netminder Charlie Lindgren back to AHL affiliate Laval, head coach Claude Julien said Price is 100 percent healthy and ready to play, though he won't start versus the Florida Panthers on Monday.
Price has been out of action since Feb. 20 when he suffered a concussion, and Julien was asked why his most important player, who has also dealt with knee injuries, is playing down the stretch of a lost season.
"The people who worry don't know all the details, they don't know everything and they will never know everything," Julien said, per John Lu of TSN.
In 43 appearances this season, Price owns a .904 save percentage and 2.98 goals against average.
