Roy split time with the Predators and Oilers in 2014-15. He didn’t produce in Nashville, but was great after being acquired by Edmonton. In 46 games with the Oilers, the 32-year-old registered 11 goals and 11 assists. He will look to beat out the likes of Jay Beagle and Michael Latta for the third or fourth line centre role in Washington.
Roy, 31, who cleared waivers today, is now heading to the lowly Oilers. The Oilers did not want to add another contract so that is why they passed on him on waivers and then dealt Arcobello for him. Roy makes $400K (per NHLNumbers) more per year than Arcobello, but also has much more experience. He had 10 points (1G / 9A) in 26 games with the Predators.
Roy, 31, will head back to the AHL for the first time since 2005-6 when he had 20 points (7G / 13A) in eight games with the Rochester Americans. He had 10 points (1G / 9A) in 26 games with the Predators this season.
Roy has served as a healthy scratch in the last three games and has now been placed on waivers. He has 10 points (1G / 9A) in 26 games this season. It would be surprising if a team like Edmonton or another team in need of a veteran pivot does not claim Roy.
With Mike Fisher out for 4-6 months with a ruptured Achilles, the Predators have signed two veteran playmakers today, Roy and Mike Riberio. Roy had nine goals and 28 assists (37 points) in 75 games with the Blues last season. Roy is undersized at 5-foot-9 but still has the ability to be a productive playmaker with the Preds this season.
Roy will centre Magnus Paajarvi and Dmitrij Jaskin after missing Friday's game.
Roy suffered an upper-body injury in Thursday's loss to the Wild. The Blues will be without six regular forwards tonight. Consider Roy day-to-day.
Chris Porter will enter the lineup as Roy gets some rest this afternoon vs. the Avalanche.
Roy missed the last two games with a lower-body injury but will be back tonight vs. the Wild. Roy has nine goals and 28 assists (37 points) in 67 games this season. Chris Porter will come out of the lineup with Roy returning.
With the retirement of Andy McDonald, Roy has the opportunity to step into a top six role with the Blues.
The Canucks were desperately seeking another centre with Ryan Kesler out with a broken foot. Roy has four goals and 18 assists in 30 games with the Stars this season. He should continue to be a solid fantasy player with his new team.
Roy missed the Stars last 5 games but will return tonight. Roy picked 2 assists in his first 4 games as a Star. He will play alongside Loui Eriksson and Tomas Vincour. The Stars need Roy and his line mates to produce as they have struggled to score on a consistent basis.
Roy will miss his 4th straight game tonight, and looks like his 5th tomorrow as well. The Stars hope to have him back next week but that still is tentative. The Stars called up Antoine Roussel on Thursday to fill in for Roy and he will make his NHL debut tonight.
Having Roy out will be a serious blow to the Stars.
If this top line sticks, Roy could be poised for a rebound from 44 points in 80 games last season with the Sabres.
Roy moves into an opportunity to get a fresh new start in Dallas after two straight down years with the Sabres.
Roy did not play up to his capabilities this season, scoring only 17 goals and 44 points in 80 games. He should improve on those totals should his leg fully recover.
Expect the Sabres at full strength tonight. Roy scored 15 goals and 41 points in 76 games this season.
Doesn't sound like Roy will miss any playing time after missing yesterday's practice. He has 15 goals and 41 points through 75 games.
Roy shortly returned to the ice, which either means he is healthy or left the ice with a skate issue. He has nine goals and 25 points through 47 games.
