08:22 AM ET 04.03 | All is not well in Montreal. Just when you thought nothing else could go wrong in a season when the Canadiens are No. 1 in the National Hockey League in man-games lost, there's a report that franchise goaltender Carey Price is suffering from a concussion. Price skipped practice Monday with what the team described as a "therapy day" and the team admitted later in the day that Price was being monitored for headaches. That announcement followed a Radio-Canada report that Price had a concussion. ... If Price did suffer a concussion, it could complicate matters for the team's new general manager. Price will become a restricted free agent on July 1 and contract talks could be delayed if Price doesn't have a clean bill of health.

Therapy days always help with a good PMS headache.

JK.

If it is a concussion, when and how did this happen?

Hope he has a speedy recovery.

Can't help but smile when I look at the standings, and see who's in the cellar. It couldn't happen to a better group of flopping, nutless Nancy-boys. I'm sure a French speaking coach will make a huge difference next year...maybe all the way up to 14th.

If that isn't the pot calling the kettle black, I don't know what is.

A year to forget for Carey. Hope he recovers soon and completely. I sympathize.

If he's lucky the concussion symptoms will involve memory loss.

Toronto looks like a model franchise compared to the Habs, even with the playoff drought.

This true Danny. Unfortunately they're the "before" model.
