MONTREAL (AP) — Carey Price made 30 saves for his fourth shutout of the season and Jeff Halpern and Michael Cammalleri scored, leading the Montreal Canadiens to a 2-0 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday night.
Price recorded his eighth career shutout and third in six games as Montreal bounced back from a 3-0 loss to Nashville on Thursday night.
The 23-year-old helped the Canadiens win for the fifth time in six games. Price began and ended Montreal’s previous four-game winning streak with shutouts, including a 41-save effort in a 3-0 win over Philadelphia on Tuesday, one day after he was named the NHL’s first star of the week.
Toronto’s Jonas Gustavsson stopped 36 shots in his second straight start in place of injured Jean-Sebastien Giguere.
