Price: 'Relax, Chill Out'
Truer words have never been spoken.

Sometimes it seems like it doesn't take much for the Bell Centre crowd in Montreal to either give a raucous standing ovation or let loose with merciless booing, and it was the latter that rained down upon goaltender Carey Price during the Canadiens' first pre-season game on Wednesday night.
Price allowed four goals on eight shots in a 4-2 loss to the Boston Bruins, causing fans to jeer him as he was replaced by backup Curtis Sanford midway through the game.
On Thursday, Price attempted to calm the Habs' rabid fanbase by reminding them how early in the season it is.
"Relax, chill out, we have lots of time. We're not winning the Stanley Cup on the first exhibition game," he said. "I don't know what (the fans') message was but I don't think it's the correct way to go about things."
That said, Price did acknowledge that these types of things were an accepted part of playing in La Belle Province.
"That's the just the way it is, there's nothing we can really do about it," Price said.
"Wherever I go in the city, people are very courteous," he added. "Nobody's ever come up to me and said, 'You suck' to my face. I don't think anybody would ever do that. It's just that when you get in a crowd, people are a lot more brave."
Habs fan and collector! Current PC's: Nick Suzuki, Cole Caufield, and Lane Hutson...., and of course...

I like this guy. He's got the stones to speak up. Good on Price, I say.
