The Montreal Canadiens have one of the most storied traditions in all of professional sports, and few honors speak louder than a number raised to the rafters of the Bell Centre. These are the players whose contributions to the bleu, blanc, et rouge were so profound that no one will ever wear their number again.
#33 - Patrick Roy (retired November 22 2008) (Hall of Fame)
Patrick Roy arrived in Montreal as a rookie and almost immediately became a legend, backstopping the Canadiens to Stanley Cup championships and redefining what it meant to be an elite goaltender in the modern era. His butterfly style and ice-cold composure under pressure made him the cornerstone of two championship runs with the club. Number 33 belongs to him alone, a permanent tribute to a career that transformed goaltending and made generations of Canadiens fans believe that anything was possible.
