Thats not a very nice thing to say about trash..

Peter Goezinya | 05/16/08, 08:13 AM

Like the Avalanche even asked him.

Baun-ded | 05/16/08, 09:09 AM

Baun-ded please done mess up all the non stories posted here. reporters jobs are counting on this made up garbage.I heard Roy AND Gretz were going to the Leafs...can i have a job now?

Peter Goezinya | 05/16/08, 09:54 AM

I'll have to think on it Peter...
Newpapers used to be associated with trees that the paper came from.
Now it seems more often than not, it is associating itself with Tree stumps as reporters.

Too early. Maybe in about 2-3 decades.

bostongm | 05/16/08, 10:33 AM

easy to say no when you weren't really considered

Spiny Norman | 05/16/08, 10:41 AM

this is a joke, right?

bluto | 05/16/08, 11:08 AM

He said "no."

But they didn't ask!

DCruiser | 05/16/08, 11:37 AM

I quit right after he fired me!

Spiny Norman | 05/16/08, 11:46 AM

this was just a media ploy

That's okay - the Avs (and the rest of the NHL hockey world) prefer you stay in Quebec too. As if that is what the kids need - we've all seen how great of a coach and role model you have been for them. Oh - yeah Jonathan is the goalie - the third string goalie.

Haha, I used to help coach his kids when I was younger at Littleton's hockey program, he was just as bad when they were five. The only reason colorado would even consider this is for ticket sales, but we don't have that problem here. Hockey and football are our only two consistent winning sports teams....

I think its important that I get this out of the way before it becomes too much of a distraction for everyone involed...I too have said no to the Avalanche. I also said no to the Leafs and the Sharks. As well, I said no to my community league that was looking for members to join the board and I said no to the lady at the grocery store that wanted me to try a sample of some deep fried cheese thingy...sorry, it just didn't look good. This is not the right time for me or my family and I'm flattered that I was never even considered but I know they all want to ask me. Maybe they're just shy.

This just in....
Patrick turns down the offer to be Barack Obama'a running mate, saying he prefers Canada to The US

Spiny Norman | 05/16/08, 03:16 PM

followe up...
when told by a reporter that he had to be born in The US to accept anyway, Roy sent his son out to kick the reporter's a**

Spiny Norman | 05/16/08, 03:17 PM

In full goalie gear.

bostongm | 05/16/08, 03:43 PM

Just so everybody knows, it wasn't that he called a presser to announce this. Somebody from the Denver Post asked him, and he said no. I don't understand why the radio personalities in Denver were so convinced that Roy was Giguere's guy. We went through the same thing when Pierre LaCroix stepped down as GM. Everybody was saying that Roy was gonna be the GM, which was ludicrous of course. Then Coach Q leaves, and all of a sudden Patrick Roy has the job guaranteed. That's ridiculous. It won't surprise me if St. Patrick is the Avs coach one day, it just obviously wasn't going to be this year.

wtnelson | 05/16/08, 05:08 PM

Yup...let him sharpen his coaching skills for another 2-3 decades...and when he's ready,he'll make his move. If they want him of course.And if he's any good.

bostongm | 05/16/08, 05:38 PM

Hey boston...Do you think he would still want to bring his sons with him at that point so they can get to the NHL one day too?
