From his subterranean lair in the Henrik Sedin Authentic Jersey ramshackle Pepsi Colisee, Patrick Roy is commandant of all he surveys, master of his domain.This utilitarian work space is office to the coach, general manager and co-owner of the Quebec Remparts, triple portfolios carried for the past seven years by the Hall of Fame goalie and iconic Montreal Daniel Sedin Authentic Jersey Canadiens alumnus.He likes having a head full of hats.Adjusting the brim of his Remparts cap, worn over hair now streaked with silver, Roy recently contemplated the possibility of coaching in the NHL, though not specifically referencing a return to the big club of his career’s glory days. “Right now it is not good timing for me. I have my three children living with me and I’m spending a lot of time with them. But is it something I’m Alexander Edler Authentic Jersey going to look at in the future? There’s a very good chance.“There’s always that curiosity to see how far that you can go as a coach. I mean, it was like that as a player and I’m assuming it’s the same thing as a coach.Some folks were wondering why we were so critical of Ales Hemsky's two-year, $10 million deal with the Edmonton Oilers and less skeptical of Mikhail Grabovski's new five-year, $27.5 million pact. Well, it’s really Tim Tebow Jets Jersey a case of simple math.First, let’s start by saying it’s a moot point to debate whether anyone who has never scored 30 goals in an NHL season or topped the 60-point plateau is "worth" more than $5 million a year, as is the case with Grabovski.What is more illuminating is to examine the two teams’ options Peyton Manning Youth Jersey when it came to these players and what were their relative needs.’’A few years ago, that offer had been made by Colorado, the team where he ended the on-ice phase of his life. “It was a very strong offer. But when the Avs came to me, I wasn’t ready and I think it would have been a mistake on my part. I feel that I’m more ready today. Coaching Brian Campbell Authentic Jersey is something that needs to be learned.Yes, you can be taught, but at the same time you need to coach the bench, the practices, make a game-plan and work with players.“It’s easier doing that in juniors because you can make a mistake and not as many people will see it. You can try things and then decide, oh, this is not working at all. This is a process that you cannot do at the NHL level.’’This conversation occurred two weeks ago. In recent Kris Letang Winter Classic Jersey days, Roy’s name has surfaced again as potential skipper of the Montreal club he led to the Stanley Cup in 1993, capturing the Conn Smythe Trophy along the way. (He pulled off the same double with Colorado in 2001.) The news bulletin was broken by Martin Leclerc at Radio-Canada.ca, albeit more with cheeky hopefulness than verifiable inside info, though Leclerc claims to have got the scoop, pending, from two unidentified club sources.For his part, Roy brushed off the report Evgeni Malkin Winter Classic Jersey while not exactly quashing it. “It makes me laugh,’’ he told the Journal de Quebec on Wednesday. “I’m flattered that my name is circulating but, at the end of the day, it’s Mr. Molson who will make decisions about who is going to be his coach and general manager.’’That would be owner Geoff Molson. And, of course, the sad-sack Habs already have a coach, interim, in Randy Cunneyworth, who was hardly given a vote of confidence when his unilingual Sidney Crosby Youth Jersey language limitations erupted, predictably, as sports-cum-political issue among the city’s chattering media class. The club issued a statement in which Molson observed that the ability to express oneself in both English and French would be “an Sidney Crosby Winter Classic Jersey important factor in the selection of the permanent head coach.’’ Unless Cunneyworth aces a crash course in French immersion this summer, that’s doesn’t sound likely to be him.Roy was flamboyantly quote-worthy in both English and French during his splendid Habs tenure.
