Carey Price submits save of the year bid against Chicago Blackhawks

Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price was a popular preseason Vezina Trophy pick this year, and he's doing a fantastic job of proving his worth on Tuesday.

The Chicago Blackhawks attacked the net with ferocity midway through the first period, and forward Jeremy Morin had a fantastic scoring chance at the side of the net as a result. Price didn't just stop Morin's bid -- he then twirled and punched the puck out of midair before it could fall in to the net behind him. He looked like a desperate volleyball player setting up a shot. Expect to see that save on end-of-the-year highlights.
