[Now 'retired' thus shouldn't be on this list] A jerk, an egomaniac, and perhaps a wife-beater- but Roy was the greatest goalie outside of Martin Brodeur in the modern era and deserves a place amongst the greatest ever. Roy was money in the playoffs- even if he had a bad game you knew he wouldn't have two bad games in a row. Montreal's strange decision to trade him (complicated by Roy's terrible behavior) was a setback for the franchise and a boon to the Colorado Avalanche. When he was on his game, Roy was amazing. Roy has the numbers, the records, the trophies, and the Stanley Cups. . .

flop around and get lucky?? What a stupid statement. Roy's a wife beater, so he doen't deserve "best" anything.. Hey billybob, I watched many utube videos of Roy fights and I have yet to find one where he wins. The Osgood fight was funny as Roy threw many haymakers but they didn't land. Osgood threw him to the ice. Guy on top wins...dat's the rules.

Roy is one ofe the best goalies in the world, it´s hard to say who´s the best, but he´s one of them for sure. and hasek doesn´t just get lycky. he´s one of the best goalies to.. but he has an odd style.. but if it were luck, he wouldn´t be in the top all the time.
chris012258 12/12/2005
Roy is definatly no hasek wanna be as an other user rediculously claimed. Roy does not even play the same style as Hasek (flop around and get luckey).
Specialboothvi cJr. 02/08/2005
Hasek wannabe!
WarGamefan93 09/25/2004
Nazzy19 is right. Roy's overrated and is not as good as Hasek is.

BEST GOALIE IN HOCKEY HISTORY!!!!!!!!!
smj42280 09/26/2003
Roy is definitely an amazing goalie--the NHL has never seen the likes of him. But his ego needs to be controlled... I still think Tretiak is better (Soviet Olympic Goalie-career got destroyed after the 1980 loss to the US)
habs_fan 06/11/2003
Can we say best goaltender of all time, multiple Vezina/Conne Smythe/Stanley Cup winner? To list all of his accomplishments requires more than one breath.
billybob 06/06/2003
hothead doesnt know how to control his temper .....funnnnnny watching him kick the crap out of every one else
cupcrazyducks9 05/28/2003
He is an incredible goalie!He has lead the avs many times. i give him a one cuz i want kariya ahead of him,but patty roy is amazing IMO
Nazzy19 05/04/2003
OVERRATED!! Big Ego... Thinks he's to good for the winter Olympics! he's an ass and a wife beater
Nazzyisgod 05/01/2003
By Far the most over rate dplayer ever to play the game when the game is on the line this guy cant deliver
fantomadam 03/30/2003
What a hothead! Hard not to have a good GAA when you play for a good team.
Sharon3802 02/27/2003
One of the best goalies ever!
goalie85 02/22/2003
I would say Patrick is a good goalie yet all that he dose is go down to butter-fly. I would rather he try to be a stand up goalie for a night and see how good he dose. As for last years Stanly Cup I don't care what people say he lost he just couldn't take the pressure. That one goal that went in on his mistake, he just couldn't get his mind past it. I don't care if he is the best money goalie of all time, but he is starting to lose all his skill from season to season.
sharpshooter 02/21/2003
i absolutely love his style of goaltending. he also beat ozzgood's ass. watching that fight alone was worth 5 stars.
mattr27 02/13/2003
Not bad, but overrated. Has played his entire career with hall of fame defencemen. Chelios, Foote, Bourqe, Foote, etc. I'd like to see how he does on a bad team.
mikey frans 02/10/2003
best goaltender off all time...patty..saint patrick..call him whatever it doesn't matter..he can't hear you because he has 4 stanley cup rings covering his ears..dominik hasek best regular season goalie..Patrick the best playoff and money goalie..I am surprised some people would even put Ed-I wish I could be like Roy-belfour in the same sentence..shows what kind of hockey I.Q some people have
Twiss 02/03/2003
Eddie's better????? Count the cups my friend. 4 to 1. Belfour has a great reputation too...as a crybaby.

CUJO and Eddie are the best. Roy thinks he's great and unfortunatly he's not. And besides all that, he's damn ugly.
HDawg1248 12/23/2002
Best playoff big-game goalie ever, but his skill is beginning to diminish.
geezilye 12/10/2002
Waaahhhhh is a classic and a fantastic goal tender, but the guy needs to stay in the freaking net. Obviously it hasn't hurt him too much over the years, but hey, what about that pathetic showing against the Red Dings last year - remember the "statue of liberty" he did? Come on, is this really what you expect of the top goalie in the league?
166mario666 07/10/2002
small goals against average, big ego.
don11 08/29/2001
Eddie who?
Davis21Wylie 06/09/2001
Best money goalie ever. He tries to stickhandle too much, but that's his only flaw. What can you say about a guy who has his own style of goaltending that millions of young kids emulate? As for you eddie the eaglet fans, go back to texas. The next big game belfour wins will be his first.

Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better, Eddie's Better!!!!!
We love Brad 11/18/2000
Ok He's a great Goaltender and all, but I can't believe he would get arrested for abusing his wife! WHATTA DICK!! To think I used to love this guy! (Colorado is still great)
Shroomwoman 06/11/2000
The best goalie ever. He's like a wall!
rave1159om 05/28/2000
Ed-die's bet-ter [clap clap clap-clap-clap] Ed-die's bet-ter [clap clap clap-clap-clap]!!
d_hu4890du 03/11/2000
Sure, he may have a great record, but watch him play one game and you'll realize he's been hit on the head one time to often. Takes risks no goalie should, and no, they don't always pay off for him.
nwc@751om 11/29/1999
Well onto the downside of his career
nigh1486om 11/23/1999
Best overall player in the NHL. He will be the one to take Gretsky's place as best player + ambassador. Only problem w/ him is he doesn't like too much attention from fans. I think he'll grow out of it soon
