The greatest goalie of the modern era hung up his skates today. He could have stayed. The Av’s are a potent team with creative attacking players, solid defense, and owners with deep pockets. And while Roy’s skills have faded, he remains one of the top five goalies in the game. But he retires today – perhaps a year too soon, but definitely not a year too late.

He leaves us with some great memories and I wish him well.
