Major Reaction and Sharp Words from Patrick Roy

Patrick Roy and the New York Islanders are on vacation after being eliminated in the first round of the playoffs in just five short games.

The one who arrived behind the Islanders' bench at the end of January still managed to accomplish his mission, guiding the New Yorkers to the playoffs.

The Islanders were not outclassed by the Hurricanes, but after their collapse in the second game when the team led by Patrick Roy was ahead 3-0 before losing, the chances of coming back in the series were rather slim.

The legendary coach tried to motivate his team in his own way during this do-or-die game. A true enthusiast.


Patrick Roy is still proud of his players' effort in this unequal confrontation against the powerful Carolina Hurricanes.
