It's a condemning article for sure, but Hartley does seem to have a good relationship with Patrick Roy. They seem to communicate with each other:

When Roy moved on to coach the Quebec Remparts in the QMJHL, he and Hartley often would discuss strategy.

"We would spend hours," Hartley said. "He would send me clips of his team over the Internet and we would get on the phone. I'd have my computer with these clips in front of me, he'd have his clips in front of him. We'd say 'Go' and we would watch the clips and I'd tell him, 'Stop and rewind and where are you on your counter?' All kinds of stuff. He would ask me, 'Why does that happen?' or 'What do you think?'

Okay, Scott Parker doesn't respect him, with good reason, but it seems Patrick Roy-and his four Stanley Cups-does.
