Patrick Waaaah Got His Number Retired Tonight

Patrick Roy got his #33 retired in Montreal tonight. Some of my favorite memories:

* Roy tells his GM on the spot he wants a trade when he's finally pulled after giving up nine goals in 31 minutes to the Red Wings:



* Roy going all Statue of Liberty against the Wings, losing a pivotal game in the 2002 Western finals:



* And my favorite, the '97 melee with the Avs and the Wings, payback for Malts:



Great goalie, and just as accomplished as a prima donna.
