  • Golden Knights' Nicolas Roy: Lights lamp in win

    Roy scored a goal on four shots in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Devils.

    Roy ended a 15-game goal drought when he opened the scoring at 3:09 of the second period. He had five assists in that span, all since he returned from an upper-body injury in mid-January. Roy now has seven goals, 19 points, 67 shots on net, 41 hits, 37 PIM and a minus-6 rating over 44 appearances. The 28-year-old is filling a fourth-line role currently, though he continues to see power-play time, so his floor is higher than other players with a similar place in their respective lineups.

  • Golden Knights' Nicolas Roy: Puts up helper in loss

    Roy notched an assist and five hits in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Islanders.

    Roy has five helpers over 12 outings since he returned from an upper-body injury. The 27-year-old is seeing bottom-six minutes currently, so his chances to be consistent on offense are slim. He's at 18 points, 63 shots on net, 41 hits, 37 PIM and a minus-7 rating over 43 appearances. Roy can move up the lineup when injuries occur, but his fantasy upside is limited until that happens.

  • Golden Knights' Nicolas Roy: Distributes three helpers

    Roy notched three assists, two blocked shots, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Panthers.

    Roy had gone six games without a point since logging an assist Jan. 12 in his return from an upper-body injury. With William Karlsson (upper body) now out of the lineup, Roy is getting a chance to center the third line and play on the second power-play unit after spending some time on the fourth line. The 27-year-old tends to do well when filling a larger role. He's at 17 points, 62 shots on net, 32 hits, 16 blocked shots, 33 PIM and a minus-6 rating through 39 appearances this season in what's been a clear down year after he logged 41 points in 70 regular-season outings in 2023-24.

  • Golden Knights' Nicolas Roy: Secures assist in return

    Roy notched an assist in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Wild.

    Roy returned Sunday after missing 11 games due to an upper-body injury. The 27-year-old took a spot on the third line and played 17:03 in Sunday's win, which could mean reduced roles for players like Tomas Hertl, Brett Howden and Tanner Pearson once Jack Eichel (illness) gets back in the lineup. Roy is up to 14 points, 52 shots on net, 26 hits, 31 PIM and a minus-6 rating through 32 appearances. He's a versatile player who features in all situations, so Roy will often see more ice time than his place in the lineup would suggest.

  • Golden Knights' Nicolas Roy: Lifted from IR

    Roy (upper body) was activated from injured reserve Sunday, per the NHL media site.

  • Golden Knights' Nicolas Roy: Won't return Saturday

    Roy is set to miss his 11th consecutive game. He has six goals and 13 points in 31 outings in 2024-25. When healthy, Roy should serve in a middle-six capacity and receive some power-play ice time.

  • Golden Knights' Nicolas Roy: On injured reserve

    Roy (upper body) was put on injured reserve Friday, per Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

    Roy hasn't played since Dec. 15, so he can return whenever he's healthy, but Vegas presumably wouldn't have put him on IR unless he was unavailable for Friday's game against San Jose. The 27-year-old has six goals, 13 points and 31 PIM in 31 outings in 2024-25.

  • Golden Knights' Nicolas Roy: Unavailable Monday

    Roy (uooer body) won't play against Anaheim on Monday, according to Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

  • Golden Knights' Nicolas Roy: Won't return Saturday

    Roy (upper body) is expected to miss Saturday's tilt against the Kraken, according to Jesse Granger of The Athletic.

    It will be Roy's second straight game on the shelf. He has six goals and 13 points in 31 outings in 2024-25. Roy will likely draw back into the lineup in a bottom-six capacity once he's healthy.

  • Golden Knights' Nicolas Roy: Lights lamp Friday

    Roy scored a goal on four shots in Friday's 3-2 win over the Stars.

    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.

  • Golden Knights' Nicolas Roy: Deposits goal in win

    Roy scored a goal on five shots in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Ducks.

    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.

  • Golden Knights' Nicolas Roy: Shines in top-line twirl

    Roy scored a goal on three shots and added a power-play assist in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Kraken.

    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.

  • Golden Knights' Nicolas Roy: Notches assist in overtime win

    Roy posted an assist and six shots on goal in Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over Utah.

    Roy has five points over his last five games. The 27-year-old set up a Noah Hanifin tally at the buzzer in the second period. Through 12 contests overall, Roy has three goals, five assists, 19 shots on net, 14 hits and a minus-1 rating. He continues to play in all situations, which gives him significantly more fantasy value than most fourth-line centers.

  • Golden Knights' Nicolas Roy: Three points in Monday's win

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

    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, bringing him up to seven points (three goals) across 10 outings in 2024-25. Roy has yet to record a power-play point this season, and he's serving primarily in a bottom-six capacity, so his opportunities are somewhat limited, which will likely cause his offensive pace to slow as the campaign progresses.

  • Golden Knights' Nicolas Roy: Scores in Friday's win

    Roy scored a goal on four shots and added three hits in Friday's 6-4 win over the Senators.

    Roy has three points over his last three games, and he's supported that with seven shots on net in the same span. The 27-year-old is playing in his usual versatile role -- while listed on the third line, he often sees additional ice time since he is reliable defensively. He has four points, nine shots on net, 11 hits, six PIM and a minus-1 rating through eight contests. If he can keep producing points, he's worth a look in deeper fantasy formats.

  • Golden Knights' Nicolas Roy: Two helpers in OT loss

    Roy notched two assists in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Panthers.

    He helped set up Tanner Pearson in the first period and Keegan Kolesar in the second, with both tallies being the first of the season for his teammates. Roy produced a career-high 41 points (13 goals, 28 assists) over 70 regular-season games in 2023-24, and he's off to a solid start to the current campaign with a goal and three points in six contests.

  • Golden Knights' Nicolas Roy: Scores in 300th career game

    Roy scored a goal on two shots in Friday's 4-3 win over the Blues.

    Roy's tally at 12:53 of the third period stood as the game-winner. This was the 27-year-old's 300th career game, and he's produced 54 goals and 82 assists over parts of eight seasons. He continues to play a depth role for the Golden Knights. Roy has been effective in that role -- he produced 41 points (seven on the power play) over 70 regular-season outings in 2023-24, which was a new career high in points.

  • Golden Knights' Nicolas Roy: Fills empty net

    Roy scored an empty-net goal in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Blackhawks.

    Roy has two goals and two assists over his last four outings. The 27-year-old is up to 13 goals, 41 points, 112 shots on net, 75 hits and a plus-8 eight rating through 69 contests overall. Roy continues to serve as a key all-situations forward, which makes his spot on the fourth line look secure as the Golden Knights prepare for the playoffs.
