Joshua Roy had the opportunity to showcase himself with the Canadian after starting the season in the American League.
He played four matches with CH… And he was invisible.
The organization then decided to sell him to Laval, and it was the right decision when we look at his performance since his dismissal.
The forward has taken part in eight games with the Rocket since the start of December and is going well.
He has seven points in his last eight games, even though he has been shut out three times:
- A goal against Syracuse (December 4)
- A goal against Toronto (December 6)
- An assist against Toronto (December 7)
- No points against Rochester (December 11)
- No points against Hartford (December 14)
- No points against Bridgeport (December 15)
- A goal and an assist against Belleville (December 20)
- A goal and an assist against Springfield (December 22)
The Canadian prospect has now collected 23 points (in 25 games) since the start of the season in the American League.
It's a great production for a 21-year-old player:
It's good in terms of points and production, but there is one aspect that Roy needs to work on in his game.
I'm talking about his consistency, and we have had an example of that since he was sent back to Laval.
The forward is seen as an offensive player who is also capable of being responsible in all three zones of the ice (he had a defensive role at the World Junior Championship), but the forward is also seen as a guy who doesn't show up not every night.
Roy has the skills and talent to play in the NHL. He held his own last year and did well (nine points in 23 games). He looked out of place at times.
But if he was cut by the Canadian at the start of the season… It's mainly because he didn't have a good camp and because he was inconsistent during camp. He arrived in September with the mentality of a guy who already had his place in the team and it cost him a position.
It's up to him to prove that he can maintain the same level of effort night after night. It is by playing with intensity in all matches that he will have the opportunity to be recalled, and it is by playing with intensity in all matches that he will have a great career. in the NHL.
Because again, the talent is there.
