Playing against Stars Roy (not injury related) is expected to make his Avs' debut against Dallas on Friday, Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette reports.

Impact Roy has scored just one goal in his last 23 outings while chipping in five assists and 17 shots. If the 29-year-old forward is going to offer Colorado some depth scoring, he is going to need to shoot the puck more. While Roy shouldn't be expected to serve in a power-play capacity, he could see minutes on the penalty kill.

Traded to Colorado Roy was dealt to Colorado from Toronto, in exchange for a conditional first-round pick in 2027 and a conditional fifth-round pick in 2026.

Impact Roy had five goals and 15 assists across 59 appearances with the Maple Leafs this season, his first in Toronto after the offseason deal that sent Mitch Marner to Vegas. The first-round pick in 2027 is top-ten protected and the Maple Leafs will receive an unprotected first-round pick in 2028 instead. Colorado has three fifth-round selections in 2026 and Toronto will receive the lowest of the picks.

First goal in 16 games Roy notched a goal Saturday in a 3-2 shootout win over the Canucks.

Impact It was Roy's first goal in 16 games (four assists). He has 19 points, including five goals, and just 50 shots in 52 games. Roy does win face-offs at a good clip (53.5 percent), and he's racked up 298 wins at the dot. Trouble is a one-dimensional center may cut it on the ice, but not in the fantasy arena.
