“Hands down, he was the greatest goaltender in the history of the National Hockey League. There are none better. The thing about Patrick Roy was how amazingly competitive this guy was. He just brought it every single night. He was so competitive; I’m not sure I’ve ever watched another athlete with his intensity and level of competitiveness. But it was more than that – he was unbelievably talented but I think what a lot of people don’t realize is what a student of the game he was. I can remember many times watching him in practice; a play would come towards him, he’d make the save, kind of stand up in the crease and then he’d sit there and almost flip the puck around in his glove, like he was visualizing and recording in his mind exactly what had just happened. He was always thinking, always trying to get that next little edge. He was the best.” – Marc Moser, radio play-by-play voice of the Colorado Avalanche
