This Day In Hockey History (11/18)

TGIF today on This Day as we salute a goalie that was a little out there (aren’t they all?) but when a playoff game was on the line, there were few better.  Today is from a moment that happened ten years ago.  Let’s face it, when Patrick Roy was on his game there were maybe a small handful that were at his level.  First we have the video and then the moment.
