Patrick Roy Screws Over Montreal Journalists Ahead of First Game Back in the City
As the Montreal Canadiens get ready to host the New York Islanders, live from the Bell Centre, their head coach Patrick Roy has played a nasty trick on the local journalists, and it's a solid decision on his part.
We learned yesterday that his team would not hold a morning practice, and now there's something even worse.
Not only will they not practice, but Patrick Roy and all his players will not speak to journalists.
No journalist will be able to talk to any New York Islanders participants today.
A Nasty Trick by Patrick Roy
We won't get into the technicalities of journalism work, but you can guess that their day and work schedule were 100% dedicated to covering Patrick Roy's return to town.
Let's just say the former #33 has just pulled the rug out from under them and completely changed their plans.
"Patrick Roy indicates that his players will not practice tomorrow morning in Montreal and there will be no media availability either. 'I don't want any distractions, I don't want it to be about me tomorrow.'" - Via Jeremy Filosa
