Impact Roy ended a 10-game point drought with the second-period tally, which stood as the game-winner. He had 14 shots on net and went minus-5 during the slump, which also saw him slip back into a fourth-line role. Roy will play more than the average fourth-liner since he plays in all situations, but it typically takes a larger role for him to be reliable in fantasy. He's at six goals, 13 points, 48 shots on net, 24 hits, 29 PIM and a minus-6 rating over 28 appearances this season.

Impact Roy tied the game at 1-1 late in the first period. He lost his spot on the top line for this game, but he still saw 17:19 of ice time despite being the listed fourth-line center. Roy is up to five goals, 11 points, 29 shots on net, 18 hits and a minus-2 rating over 16 appearances. While his even-strength usage isn't ideal, Roy adds enough points, shots and hits to be an option in deep fantasy formats, especially those where he has wing eligibility.

Impact Roy was promoted to the top line when Mark Stone (lower body) missed Friday's contest. The jump in usage (20:36 of ice time) served Roy well, as he earned two points in the first period while playing on a line with Jack Eichel and Ivan Barbashev. This isn't unusual for Roy -- he's often moved up when injuries occur. He's produced four goals, six helpers, 23 shots on net, 16 hits and an even plus-minus rating over 14 appearances this season, most frequently filling a middle-six role, though he's played on the fourth line at times as well.

Through 12 contests overall, Roy has three goals, five assists, 19 shots on net, 14 hits and a minus-1 rating.

Three points in Monday's win Roy recorded one goal and two assists in Monday's 5-0 win over the Flames.

Impact Roy endured a slow start to the season and registered just one point across his first five appearances. However, he's turned things around of late with three multi-point efforts over his last five contests. Roy has yet to record a power-play point this season, and as a fourth-line center, his opportunities to produce will be a bit reduced compared to top-six forwards.
