Head coach Claude Julien said Price's status for Thursday's game against the New York Rangers on Thursday is to be determined.
The Canadiens had Antti Niemi in one net and a 'shooter tutor' secured to the other during Wednesday's practice.

Price played the entire game Tuesday, making 30 saves on 33 shots.
