Patrick Roy Retiring
 
What do you all think about him retiring? I'm sad, cuz he is one of my favorite goalies (Ed Belfour is my other one). I have heard that he is retiring because he wants to see his 14 year old son who plays goalie for a team in Quebec, and because he has arthritic hips. What all do you think about this?

I think it's cool. He's proved all he could. He's the best goalie ever in the NHL and I think he deserves it. I'm just wondering what Colorado is going to do. They have HUGE hole now.

Stone Ill 05-28-2003 01:11 PM

This is sad, but I heard that Colorado might try to sign another fellow Quebecer. Perhaps you know him; Felix Potvin.

Then I guess I'm no one! Haha! By the way, I'm just kidding..On the COL site, it said they are retiring #33.

Peanut 05-28-2003 02:46 PM

I think the NHL should retired 33!

JameO 05-28-2003 03:00 PM

Yeah I think he is the greatest and deserves this retirement. And yes they should retire number 33!

I know, I was too. Yeah they should retire his number but I dont think he's the "greatest"

Stone Ill 05-28-2003 05:56 PM

No, but he's unquestionably one of the greatest. I'll name a few of the old-timers. Keep in mind that I've forgotten some..hehe

Ken Dryden
Johnny Bower
Jaques Plante
Terry Sawchuck

I remember there was this goalie in the 1920s...He was good..and there was another who played with two trappers.

Mr. Snackpants 05-28-2003 08:40 PM

Yeah, he was one of the best.......but not better than Cujoe :roll: (sorry if its spelled wrong)

Stone Ill 05-28-2003 08:47 PM

Hah..Cujo sucks. Living in Toronto, I heard all the hype..He was even in some kind of powerbar commercials! Haha..

Peanut 05-28-2003 09:25 PM

Yeah Cujo does suck.

Oh dear god, if they get Potvin I am gonna die! I hate that guy, he was good in Toronto, but I dno how he is doing now, I dont really see too many headlines or anything with him now. If they want a fellow Quebecer they should get Jean-Sebastien Giguere :D Anaheim may put up a fight in a bidding war or whatever, but Patrick Roy was getting paid what, 7.5 million a year? What is J.S.G. getting paid? Probably less. Meh, I just hope they get a good goalie. Who was it that is going to be a free agent this year? I know a main goalie is going to be a free agent this summer, but I forgot his name x_x

JameO 05-29-2003 05:16 PM

Cujo reeks. And I am glad he lost with detroit!

Mr. Snackpants 05-29-2003 06:42 PM

does he really? I didn't know..........
