Patrick Roy
Award-Winning Former NHL Goaltender & Former Head Coach for the Quebec Remparts
Patrick Roy is a Canadian professional ice hockey coach and former goaltender and executive, who previously served as the head coach for the Quebec Remparts of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL). He has as glittering a goaltending resume as any man who has ever strapped on pads, and eccentricities to match. Roy won four Stanley Cup titles and talked to his goal posts. He was named the Conn Smythe winner as playoff MVP three times - the only player in NHL annals who can say that - and wrote the names of his kids on his goalie stick.
He won more than 200 games with two teams, had his famous No. 33 retired by each of them, and for years made it a practice never to skate over a red line or blue line. In 2017, Roy was named one of the 100 Greatest NHL Players in history. Being hailed in sports media as "King of goaltenders".
Nicknamed "Saint Patrick", Roy split his playing career in the National Hockey League (NHL) between the Montreal Canadiens, with whom he played for 11 years, and the Colorado Avalanche, with whom he played for eight years.
Roy is widely credited with popularizing the butterfly style of goaltending, which has since become the dominant style of goaltending around the world. Roy has resigned as general manager and head coach of the Quebec Remparts just over a week after the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League team won the Memorial Cup in 2023.
