The Blues had to dress an equipment manager a couple of years ago when they traded Halak and Miller hadn't gotten into town yet. NHL rules allow you to essentially dress any schmo in the organization as an 'emergency goalie' if you couldn't get someone up from the minors in time for the game.
So had the Avs been caught shorthanded, Roy could've actually played. It's my understanding he actually went out there in pads before gametime because the Avalanche knew it was a possibility.
