Roy: I have a small dog that I bought when I was living with one of my girlfriends. I found a young German shephard, about a year and a half old. He was beat up, I took care of him and he stayed. I've had him almost two years. He's amazing. He's not agressive at all. His name is Hasard - it means if something between accident and chance.
Roy: I like to listen to music, read, have some friends over. And I like to cook. And I feed birds. I like to watch them. Watch over my dogs. Work on my house.

Roy: We went to Maurice's home, the first time I met him. Then Robert said this to me: "Don't worry, he doesn't speak much". But in the end, he and I didn't stop chattering. (from The Maurice Richard film interview, 23. october 2005.)
