New York Islanders goaltender Ilya Sorokin makes a save against the Pittsburgh Penguins during the third period of an NHL hockey game Wednesday, April 17, 2024, in Elmont, N.Y. Amidst a decision to change goalies during their first-round series against the Carolina Hurricanes, New York Islanders head coach Patrick Roy was reminded of an old analogy made by his former goaltending coach with the Montreal Canadiens, Francois Allaire, while texting with his dad on Thursday morning ahead of Game 3.
More than three decades later, Roy is dusting off the old analogy to describe the Islanders’ goaltending tandem. “I was a Ferrari,” Roy said. “I could be a little more bumpy and all this. So today we’re going with the Ferrari. We had the Cadillac the first two games and we’re going with the Ferrari.”
