SI's Best Photos of Patrick Roy

Hall of Fame goalie Patrick Roy dominated the NHL for 18 seasons while popularizing the butterfly style: pads to the ice, stick covering the five-hole as he dared shooters to find the slivers of space above his shoulders. Fearless, smart, technically precise, iron-willed and cocky, Roy is the all-time posteason leader in games (247) and wins (151). The 11-time All-Star​ also won three Vezina Trophies, three Conn Smythes and four Stanley Cups. As "Saint Patrick" celebrates his 51st birthday on Oct. 5, 2016, we present SI's 33 best photos of No. 33.
