Patrick Roy Reveals Why He Cannot Return to The NHL
Patrick Roy, an NHL legend and Hall of Fame goaltender, holds a record that solidifies his status as one of the greatest goalies in league history. Despite his accomplishments, Roy acknowledges the impact of his past actions on future opportunities. After winning the Memorial Cup Championship with the Quebec Remparts in the QMJHL, he openly recognizes his past mistakes, including his departure from a previous NHL executive role, which may hinder his chances of landing a similar position again.
Reflecting on his time with the Colorado Avalanche, Roy takes ownership of his errors and acknowledges the negative impression he left when he left the team. He admits that his departure from Colorado has made it difficult to secure employment, understanding the consequences of his past decisions. However, he has learned from his missteps and accepts the situation at hand.
Following his exit from Colorado, Roy took on coaching and GM roles with the Remparts. However, his abrupt resignation as coach and VP of hockey operations with the Avalanche in 2018 remains significant. Roy emphasizes the importance of separating management and coaching responsibilities, having gained clarity on this issue during his time with Colorado and Joe Sakic, who was the Executive VP and GM at the time and is now the President of Hockey Operations.
