Yesterday was also Patrick Roy's Birthday. He was one of the greatest goalies, if not the greatest goalie of all time. He played his prime years with the Montreal Canadiens, a team you and I both know I adore with all my heart. Even though they are now so small and pitiful, there was once a time when their roster held players like Maurice Richard, Jean Beliveau, Ken Dryden and Larry Robinson. Oh, those were the days. Remember them well, Patty. Remember them well.
By the by, Patrick Roy never actually played with any of those guys, but he contributed well to the Habs' success, as did they, so I just thought I'd metion them in this post. Also, a little fun fact: Mario Lemieux and Patrick were not only born on the same day, but in the same year as well! October 5th, 1965 must have been a very happy day in the hockey world.
