Being a goaltender for the Montreal Canadiens might be the worst job in the NHL. Not only are you playing in an extremely hard-to-please market, but the storied histories of those who have tended the net before is the bar you need to reach to be considered great. The past triumphs of Patrick Roy, Ken Dryden, and Jacques Plante are always brought up in comparison to their modern counterparts.

Luckily for Montreal they have Carey Price in net; a man who continues to shatter decades-old records and leads his team both on and off the ice.
