Canadiens' Carey Price: In net against Team Czech Republic

Price will start for Team Canada in Saturday's World Cup opener against Team Czech Republic, CTVnews reports.

Analysis:

While Price hasn't played in an NHL game since last November due to a knee injury, there's little question that he remains one of the NHL's best goaltenders. In 66 games during the 2014-15 campaign, the now 29-year-old touted the league's best GAA (1.96) and save percentage (.933) on his way to 44 wins. Price, Corey Crawford, and Braden Holtby form a fierce triumvirate of netminders for Team Canada that will be tough to score on during the tournament.
