Patrick Roy Inducted Monday into the Hockey Hall of Fame

The NHL’s winningest goaltender, Patrick Roy was inducted Monday into the Hockey Hall of Fame. Roy was elected in on his first year of eligibility after amassing 551 regular-season wins and 151 playoff victories — both NHL records. He may be one of the most decorated NHL goalies of all time, amassing three Conn Smythe Trophies (1986, ‘93, ‘96) as playoff MVP and three Vezina Trophies as the NHL’s top goalie (1989, ‘90, ‘92). He also found himself on the winning team of the Stanley Cub 4 times during his 19 year career in the NHL. No one deserves to be in the Hall of Fame more than Roy whose day to day play showed up regularly on Sports Center Highlights and Great Hockey Compilations with heart thumping music added in the background.

So, who do you view as the greatest goalkeeper of all time?
