Here's his statement http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/patrick-roy-statement-589887871.html

Patrick Roy Statement
DENVER, CO, Aug. 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ - Patrick Roy, head coach and vice president of hockey operations for the Colorado Avalanche, has issued the following statement:

"For the past three years, I have carried out my duties as Head Coach and Vice President of Hockey Operations for the Colorado Avalanche with energy, passion and determination.

I have thought long and hard over the course of the summer about how I might improve this team to give it the depth it needs and bring it to a higher level. To achieve this, the vision of the coach and VP-Hockey Operations needs to be perfectly aligned with that of the organization. He must also have a say in the decisions that impact the team's performance. These conditions are not currently met.

Today, I am informing you of my decision to leave the Colorado Avalanche organization. Though it saddens me, I have put much thought about this decision in recent weeks and have come to be fully comfortable with it.

I am grateful to the Colorado Avalanche organization, with which I remain in good terms, for letting me lead this great team. I thank all the players I have had the pleasure of coaching and the fans for their unwavering, unconditional support.

I remain forever loyal to the Avalanche with which I played 478 games, coached another 253, and won two Stanley Cups."

Patrick Roy does not intend to comment further on this announcement.

Am I a terrible person if I want the Habs to hire him next?

Holy mackinoley. If they get a good coach in, they could be yet another brutal Central team. They've certainly got forward skill.

It did a great job showing a mixed team response without demonizing any player.

Well, that's what everyone figured would happen a year ago. Now that the GM has said about 80 billionty times that Therrien isn't going anywhere, it will be interesting to see whether that holds or not.

I enjoyed it. But I got to ask, who is Tishy? That was the one nickname I couldn't figure out.

Deadspin's headline captures it best.

(The Avs still haven't confirmed his exit. Maybe Sakic's cup rings are in his ears.)

No wonder I couldn't figure it out. How'd he get it?

So far as I know they've never revealed it. Whenever he gets asked he makes super squirrelly faces and declines to answer.

Alternate headline. Patrick Roy quits in the most Patrick Roy way possible.

I am actually going to miss him, he was very entertaining. Now for maximum amusement they need to hire the guy the Wild fired.

... is this true? Desert Hawks, Red Hawks, Nighthawks? Like, that would be beyond idiotic.

Ew. Let's hope not. I saw on Reddit that Neon Knights was in the running and I desperately want that to be the team name now.

Neon Knights would be the only Knight name I'd accept.

I actually think Desert Hawks sounds badass.
