Former Avalanche goalie Patrick Roy today denied receiving an offer from the Avs for a position with the team.

"I never received an offer anyway, I'm not commenting," Roy told the french language website SRC.ca.

NHL sources close to Roy have told The Denver Post the Avs have offered him their head coaching job and that he is mulling it over. Canadian sports network TSN also reported the Avs are "waiting for the phone to ring" from Roy, and that a job is his if he wants it.

Avalanche vice president of media relations Jean Martineau said the team has no comment on the reports.

The team's only listed vacancy at the moment is for a general manager position. The team still has head coach Tony Granato in place, with two years left on his contract.
