Ken Dryden; Goalie Legend Passes

He was my husband’s hero. Hubby is a goalie and grew up watching this legend, in a city that is infamous for its love of hockey.

Mr. Dryden exemplified dignity, class and a love of the game.

The hockey world is paying tribute to this hero of the net.

Anecdote? There was an ongoing debate in our house (mainly because I love to poke the bear 😁); who was the better goalie, Patrick Roy or Ken Dryden. In all honesty, I was a Dryden fan but I was also a Roy fan. Hubby despises Patrick Roy…not entirely sure why but he does. The fun I would have debating this with him…OMG, it was and will probably remain, a huge source of amusement for me.

Thank you Mr. Dryden, for your love of the sport, teaching young men, like my husband, to play with honour and dignity.

Rest in peace, sir.
