Nicknamed "Saint Patrick," Roy played 11 years with the Montreal Canadiens and eight with the Colorado Avalanche, winning four Stanley Cups, two with each team. He is the only player to win the Conn Smythe Trophy three times across three decades and with two different teams.

Roy popularized the butterfly style of goaltending and holds several records, including the most NHL playoff wins (151) and games played by a goaltender (247). The Canadiens and Avalanche have retired his No. 33 jersey. Inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2006, he was named one of the 100 Greatest NHL Players in 2017. As a coach, Roy led the Quebec Remparts to two Memorial Cup victories (2006, 2023) and won the NHL's Jack Adams Award in 2014 with the Colorado Avalanche.

Patrick Roy parents

Legendary NHL goaltender Patrick Roy was born in Quebec City to Barbara Miller-Roy and Michel Roy. His mother Barbara Roy faced a significant health battle in 2006 when she contracted necrotizing fasciitis, also known as flesh-eating disease. The condition was reportedly triggered by a minor injury she sustained after falling off an exercise ball and cutting her elbow. The bacteria spread rapidly, leading to the amputation of her arm to save her life as per ABC News.

Michel Roy, the father of Patrick Roy, had a notable career in the Quebec government, serving for over 26 years in various senior positions, including Deputy Minister of Tourism and Communications as per Patrick Roy’s biography book titled Patrick Roy: Winning, Nothing Else. Roy has a younger brother Stéphane Roy.

Patrick Roy's ex-wife is Michèle Piuze. The couple married on June 9, 1990, and divorced in 2003. Roy and Michèle Piuze have three children - Jonathan, Frederick, and Jana. Their marriage faced public scrutiny in October 2000, when Patrick Roy was arrested for a domestic dispute. During the incident, Michèle Piuze made a 911 call, which she ended without speaking, prompting police intervention. Roy admitted to pulling two bedroom doors off their hinges during an argument about in-laws. He was arrested on suspicion of misdemeanor criminal mischief and domestic violence but was not formally charged. The incident likely contributed to their eventual separation as per ABC News. However, even after separation, they choose to celebrate family functions. Jana Roy, daughter of Roy and Michèle Piuze shared her wedding pictures where both his parents seem like family.
