Patrick Roy steps down from post with Avalanche, suggest discord with management
DENVER — Patrick Roy is leaving the Colorado Avalanche.
The club’s head coach and vice president of hockey operations announced his decision to resign in a lengthy statement on Thursday that suggested discord with the organization.
Roy’s vision for the club, he said, needed to be “perfectly aligned with that of the organization”, adding that he must have “say in the decisions that impact the team’s performance.”
“These conditions are not currently met,” Roy concluded.
