PATRICK ROY: WINNING. NOTHING ELSE. by Roy, Michel. Translated by Charles Phillips - 2008

Mississauga, Ontario: John Wiley & Sons, 2008. 518 pp, 9 1/4" H. Colour and b&w photographs. "A Hall-of-Fame goaltender, Patrick Roy holds the record for the most victories by an NHL goalie, with 551 career wins in the regular season and 151 in the playoffs. He has hoisted the Stanley Cup four times (twice with the Montreal Canadiens and twice with the Colorado Avalanche) and was awarded the Conn Smythe Trophy as the most valuable player in three of those four Stanley Cup campaigns. He has won the Vezina Trophy three times and is a five-time recipient of the Jennings Trophy. An incredible hockey talent who was instrumental in changing the very art of goaltending, Roy's success was driven as much by determination and perseverance as by talent. (This book) reveals the man behind the mask - the hopes and disappointments, triumphs and failures, and the all too human side of a man whom many consider the greatest goaltender in the history of hockey."
