“It’s been a season full of emotions for Patrick,” Tangway mentioned to register. There was not only the Rimbar family.

don’t press
Tanguyi, Roy’s partner and friend for 25 years, has confirmed that he can take as much time as he wants before making an official decision about his future.
“The season ended suddenly. Patrick is not only my life partner but also my coach and general manager. I will accompany him as best I can and let him make his decisions. In the end, his decision will be mine and as I told him yesterday, he can take his time and there is no need to rush.”
In order to explain his reasoning, Patrick Roy stated, on Wednesday evening, that he would return if he could still feel the flames burning.

Stress
For Head Remparts, people don’t realize all the workload Roy has been putting in for years.
“He’s there every day, from morning to evening. Even if Patrick is the winner of all the titles, including four Stanley Cups, there’s pressure attached to it all. This year, before playoffs against Rimouski and Schwenigan, there were problems and the tension continued hours before The match There is an incredible intensity and we must not forget that Patrick has only one assistant behind the bench.
“I can see all the work and effort he puts in. Some wonder why he’s doing this and why he’s not taking advantage of it. He’s here because it’s an incredible passion for him and an incredible challenge.”
It remains to be seen if this passion still exists.
