Price’s rehab continues
Dave Stubbs of NHL.com: Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price had surgery back on July 22nd to clean up some torn meniscus. Full recovery was expected to be 10 to 12 weeks.
Price said he’s happy with the rehab but hasn’t started skating yet and they don’t have a date for when he’ll take to the ice.
12 weeks from the surgery would almost be the start of the regular season on October 12th.
“It’s a process that you take day by day. I’m going every day to Brossard (the Canadiens’ practice facility), doing all the things to get better. We’re talking about trying it out (by skating) soon, but you’ve got to make sure you’re ready to go when the time is right. We’re doing exercises in the gym. You want to eliminate any of the guesswork when you jump on the ice and make sure there’s no risk of hurting yourself again.”
