NICOLAS ROY NEWS

Nets 10th goal of season Roy scored a goal on four shots and added two hits in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Red Wings.

Impact Roy got on the ice for a late shift with the Golden Knights' top players and cashed in on a pass from Ivan Barbashev. This was Roy's fourth point in the last seven games. The 28-year-old remains in a bottom-six role at even strength, but his goal Saturday got him to double digits for the fourth year in a row. He's at 10 goals, 25 points, 85 shots on net, 60 hits, 31 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating through 58 appearances this season.

Pots winner on power-play Roy scored the game-winning goal on the power play and added an even-strength assist in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact The 28-year-old was in the right place at the right time, tapping home a tic-tac-toe passing play from Tomas Hertl and Jack Eichel on Vegas' first shot on net of the game midway through the first period. It was Roy's first power-play goal of the season, and the multi-point performance was his first since Jan. 26, but he's been getting onto the scoresheet with some surprising consistency of late -- he's produced three goals and seven points over the last 12 games.

Breaks goal drought Roy scored a goal, added three hits and blocked two shots in Sunday's 6-5 loss to the Kings.

Impact Roy had gone seven games without a goal, logging just two assists in that span. He snapped the slump with a second-period tally to get the Golden Knights on the board in this high-scoring contest. The 28-year-old forward has been confined to the fourth line lately, which explains his relative lack of offense. He's collected eight goals, 14 assists, 75 shots on net, 53 hits, 27 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating across 52 appearances in 2024-25, putting Roy at risk of missing the 30-point mark for the first time since 2020-21.

Garners assist in win Roy logged an assist and two hits in Thursday's 7-5 win over the Blackhawks.

Impact Roy helped out on Keegan Kolesar's tally at 13:38 of the second period, which was the game-winner. With four points over seven outings in February, Roy had another acceptable month for a depth forward, matching his production from 10 games in January. He's now at 21 points, 72 shots on net, 46 hits, 37 PIM and a minus-7 rating across 48 appearances this season. Despite the Golden Knights' lineup shuffle for Thursday's contest, Roy remains on the fourth line since the team is missing just William Karlsson (lower body) and Cole Schwindt (lower body) up front.

Posts assist in win Roy registered an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Canucks.

Impact Roy has three points over five games in February, matching his output from the prior 10 contests. With the Golden Knights missing just William Karlsson (lower body) among the regulars at center, there's little room for Roy to move up in the lineup. He's at 20 points, 71 shots on net, 42 hits, 37 PIM, 21 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating across 46 appearances. Roy won't offer a lot of fantasy appeal from the fourth line, though he does a little bit of everything and continues to see power-play time on the second unit.

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

Impact 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.

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

Impact 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.

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.

Impact 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.
