Rest of the League Weekly Report


Price progressing, not ready to skate: Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price received a positive assessment Monday in his recovery from a lower-body injury sustained Nov. 25 against the New York Rangers from coach Michel Therrien. But Price isn't ready to start practicing yet.
"Carey Price's rehab is going well but he is not ready to get back on the ice just yet," Therrien told the Canadiens website.

On Nov. 30 the Canadiens announced Price would be out for six weeks; Monday marked five weeks since that statement.

Ducks goaltender Gibson wins Rookie of the Month for December: Anaheim Ducks goaltender John Gibson, who went 5-3-1 with a 1.62 goals-against average, .929 save percentage and three shutouts in 10 appearances, has been named the NHL’s Rookie of the Month for December.

Gibson edged Chicago Blackhawks left wing Artemi Panarin (4-7—11 in 15 GP), Buffalo Sabres center Jack Eichel (3-8—11 in 14 GP), Tampa Bay Lightning center Jonathan Marchessault (5-4—9 in 13 GP) and Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere (3-6—9 in 12 GP) for the honor.
