Canadiens' Carey Price: Sets aside 32 in Game 1 win

Price turned away 32 of 33 shots during Tuesday's 3-1 victory against Team Europe in Game 1 of the World Cup of Hockey Finals.

Analysis:

Price is undefeated in the tournament, protecting the crease with relative ease at times, and ultimately dominating as the top netminder at the World Cup. The 29-year-old gave up three goals to a powerful Team Russia in the semifinals, but Team Europe will find it tough to produce against one of the best in the business. Thursday's matchup could spell the end of Price's World Cup of Hockey run, as Team Canada has the chance to close it out. Owners should be excited at the star goalie's prospects for the upcoming season after his 2015-16 was cut short by injury.
