Speaking of amazing, Price's 258th career victory officially tied him with Hall-of-Famer Ken Dryden for third spot on the franchise's all-time wins list among goaltenders - a feat that certainly wasn't lost on the Canadiens' No. 31.
"It's cool. I'm sure he probably did it in a little bit shorter time than I did," mentioned Price, who upped his record to 25-15-5 on the year in besting the Rangers on Broadway. "It's a cool thing, but it's just another milestone. You just have to try and get that next win."
In order to do just that, Price insists that the Canadiens have to keep going about their business in exactly the same way they did on Tuesday night, playing with the type of fire and grit that enabled them to hand one of the Eastern Conference's top teams their first loss in their own barn since January 31.
"We were desperate, for sure. We need to play that way for the rest of the season if we're going to find that consistency in our game. If we can give out efforts like that, it'll come," said Price, who is convinced wins of that nature can only yield positive results going forward. "It's a momentum-builder, for sure. Those are the types of games that make you feel good going home."
