Carey Price has taken a big step closer to returning to the Montreal Canadiens line-up. Khyri Thomas Jersey . Price took part in a full practice with his teammates on Friday ahead of the teams Saturday night contest against the Ottawa Senators. TSNs John Lu reported from Canadiens practice Friday that Price was getting engaged physically, participating in short ice battle drills. He was knocked down in the crease twice - first by Rene Bourque, then by Brendan Gallagher - who received a shot from Price afterward. Price began practice splitting a net with Dustin Tokarski, who was called up from the Hamilton Bulldogs of the American Hockey League in his absence. Tokarski was moved to the other goal, splitting time with Peter Budaj mid-way through Fridays practice. Coach Michel Therrien would not tip his hand as to whether he might play this weekend. “He had a really good day today but from our standpoint, nothing has changed, hes still day-to-day and well see where hes at tomorrow,” Coach Michel Therrien said after practice. “Were really pleased about the way he was capable to practice today.” His teammates were similarly impressed with their netminders compete level on Friday. "I think hes trying to push it a little more," Gallagher told Lu after practice. "He looks as quick and powerful as hes always been." P.K. Subban was also happy to see Price getting back up to speed after the injury. "Im not a doctor or anything, but I do know that its a good sign when hes in practice and hes competing like that," he told TSN after practice. The 26-year-old netminder is yet to appear in a game for the Canadiens since returning from the Sochi Olympics. He exited his first practice with the Canadiens after aggravating an injury in his right leg. He has missed the Canadiens last eight games, with the team going 3-4-1 over that stretch. His last appearance for the Canadiens was a 4-1 win in the teams pre-Olympic finale against the Carolina Hurricanes on Feb. 8. Price went 5-0 with a staggering 0.59 goals-against average and a .972 save percentage with the Canadian team at Sochi.

Now, both are season highs as Dallas slowly works its way back into playoff contention in the Western Conference.Montreal Canadiens rookie camp is in full swing. Some players are very familiar with how the camp works, while for others this is the first time theyre getting a taste of an NHL training camp. Jarred Tinordi and Nathan Beaulieu are two veteran players attending rookie camp. Both were called up to the NHL for the first time last season and now hope to become regular fixtures in the Habs line up this season. That might not be so easy, as general manager Marc Bergevin signed Douglas Murray and re-signed Davis Drewiske, two veteran NHL blueliners, this off-season. Tinordi and Beaulieu are still optimistic about their chances. Bergevin has made it clear if a rookie shows him they deserve a spot on the team he will make room. That is exactly the mindset the two defensemen are coming into camp with. "Im going to try and make Bergevin make a tough decision" Tinordi said. Beaulieu spent the summer living in Montreal and training with Pierre Allard, the HHabs strength and conditioning coach in Brossard. Allen Iverson Jersey. Tinordi spent the summer training in London, Ontario with the same trainer he has been with for the past three summers. Another player who hopes to make an impression with Habs management is Michael McCarron, who was drafted 25th overall by the Habs at this years NHL draft. McCarron had a difficult decision to make this off-season. Prior to the draft, he was set to play this fall at Western Michigan University, but he ultimately decided to play for the London Knights in the OHL. He believes the OHL would allow him to better develop his physical game. During the summer, he trained in London alongside Canadiens tough guy Brandon Prust. In McCarrons first OHL game, not only did he drop the gloves for teammate Max Domi, son of former NHLer Tie Domi, but he also scored his first OHL goal. McCarron hopes to put his physical game to the test in the pre-season game against the Boston Bruins on September 14. ' ' '
