When he was replaced by Jared Bednar as head coach for the Avalanche
93 Stanley Cup run. No one else could have taken that roster to a championship.
[ain’t but one ](https://youtu.be/G7LZbJhi6Fo?feature=shared)
His last game as a Canadian
I couldn’t hear because I have two Stanley Cup rings in my ears.
When he fought Vernon at the Joe
When he got torched for nine goals his last game in Montreal and let team president at the time, Ronald Corey, who was on the bench that he had played his last game in Montreal all while the coach who left him in, Mario Trembley was watching. Absolute gold.
The ‘93 Cup run, but specifically [the wink](https://youtu.be/BGwUM8HQtBc?si=n3SK3oAK2KCmd6g1)

2002 Western Conference Finals Game 7
2002 WCF game 7
Telling Roenik that he can’t hear him with those cup rings jammed in his ears was pretty good.
When he broke the glass partition trying to fight Bruce Boudreau
His fight between him and Osgood!!
when he skate with puck over the red line vs Rangers

December 2, 1995
The abortion of the failed Statue of Liberty showboat that ended up in his net. 😂
Hmmm, could be one of the times he beat his wife. Maybe when his dad pulled him off the school hockey team and told the coach his teammates weren’t good enough for him. Maybe when he threw a tantrum and quit on the Habs because they hurt his save percentage one game? A lot of options.

Dekeing Gretzky at the red line
Him crying and leaving the ice like a baby multiple times
2006, late night round of Trivial Pursuit where we got hammered by the sports questions all night long. I need just a correct sports answer to win and the card reads “Record holder for the most NHL wins by a goalie.”
I answer Patrick Roy, and the girl reading the card says “close but I’m sorry” and I interrupt with the spelling “R-O-Y” and she tosses the card at my face.
Good times. I’m not sure of the edition of the game. Either 2001 or 2002.
When he returned to the Habs and led them to 5 consecutive Stanley Cups, sweeping Boston and Toronto each time in the early rounds.
Shit, I’m not supposed to reveal stuff about the future.
I can see that Red Wings fans have a very distinct set of memories compared to everyone else.
Probably when his kids had to start calling him Uncle
Proudly trying to show off a caught puck and accidentally throwing it in the neck. Honestly though there are so many, such a legend for so many reasons
1993 baby
When he got caught [hot dogging it](https://youtu.be/xIjp_pwvF5Q?si=FC2ENZ-UJQJDdGNG)
Watching him obsessively try to score a goal his final seasons as a player here in Colorado. Taking advantage of the fact there was no rule about how much a goalie’s stick could be curved, having a special stick made that he’d go get when an opponent was about to pull the goalie.
It was just so him, yeah, you’re going to put an extra man on ice to shoot at me, but I don’t care, I’m focused on scoring because I know you can’t. Don’t get me wrong, I love all the quips big wins, and moments he gave us, but that was what made him human to me, wanting that damn goal so bad.
When he thought he had it in his glove and Shanahan showed him he didn’t by putting it in the net. I don’t remember laughing this hard watching a hockey game since
When he stick handled the puck across center ice at MSG
The skate to center ice with a spin
1996 cup finals, game 3 « No. More. Rats. »

Years and years of being the best. Despite what people say he was the best. I always knew the Avs were a shoe in to win every game regardless of anything, and they won a great amount when he was goalie.
