Okay, let's talk about the one dupe card in today's pack and it is of course, Patrick Roy. I am not one that likes to heap praise on the man, but even I have to say, with 4 Stanley Cup rings, 551 career wins, a long tenure in Montreal and a long tenure in Colorado, there are still three memories I have of him that are tops.
3 - April 1, 1998 - When Patrick came flying out of the Colorado net to meet Detroit's goalie Chris Osgood at centre ice, where Chris pummeled Roy and left him bleeding
2 - May 9, 1996 - WHen Patrick put Jeremy Roenick in his place during a press conference commenting he couldn't hear Jeremy's remarks due to the Stanley Cup rings
1 - December 2, 1995 - His last game in a Montreal Habs uni when he was blasted out of the game after being left out to suffer a beating, letting in 9 goals before being pulled
Keepers in the pack...
Some solid goalies with Luongo and Potvin!

It doesn't surprise me the #1 memory of Roy being the blowout and the blowup.. lol
ReplyDeleteI liked Roy in the early '90s until I realized what a brat he was. That Roenick takedown was awesome though.
ReplyDeleteRoy is a legend. Kind of a jerk... but a legend.
ReplyDeleteWell, that blowout was legen.....wait for it.....dary.
