Just Google'd some articles on Patrick leaving, found this gem.

Michael Dalton, Calgary, Alberta
"The day the Habs died. I'll never forget the day the Montreal Canadiens traded the greatest goaltender of all time, Patrick Roy, to the Colorado Avalanche, all to appease an ignorant coach's ego. A coach who never had any business behind the Habs bench in the first place. Since the trade, the Avs have been consistent playoff threats and the Habs have been playoff jokes or no-shows. Much as the Curse of the Bambino is still a source of frustration for Boston, this trade will one day be called the Curse of St. Patrick."

Well played, Michael Dalton. I agree.
