Canadiens' Joshua Roy: Sent down by Montreal
Roy was sent down to AHL Laval on Monday.
Roy made 23 appearances for the Canadiens last year and racked up four goals and nine points while averaging 12:08 of ice time. He appeared to be in the mix for a role with the NHL club to begin the regular season, but it looks as though he'll be left off the Opening Night roster. However, the 21-year-old recorded 13 goals and 42 points in 41 AHL appearances last year and will likely be in the conversation to be called up if he has a hot start to the 2024-25 campaign.

Canadiens' Joshua Roy: Moved to minors
Roy has recovered from his upper-body injury and was sent to AHL Laval on Wednesday.
Roy hasn't played since March 19 due to the injury. He had four goals and nine points in 23 contests with the Canadiens this campaign. Montreal's season is done, so Roy will get the chance to see additional action in the minors. The 20-year-old has already supplied 13 goals and 32 points in 40 appearances with Laval in 2023-24.

Canadiens' Joshua Roy: Timeline clarified
Roy is dealing with an upper-body injury that will keep him out 4-6 weeks.
Given the Canadiens' last game is April 16, there's a decent chance Roy's campaign is over, but the team's update did not rule him out for the year. If he is unable to suit up again, he'll finish with nine points in 23 outings this season, which would allow the 20-year-old to retain rookie status in 2024-25.

Canadiens' Joshua Roy: Ruled out indefinitely
Roy will be sidelined indefinitely due to an undisclosed injury, the team announced Wednesday.
Roy logged 12:21 of ice time against the Oilers on Tuesday and will travel back to Montreal for further evaluation. At a minimum, the 20-year-old center should be expected to be out of action for the next three games, though it certainly sounds like it could be longer. In Roy's stead, Brendan Gallagher should be in line for a promotion to the second line, though Josh Anderson could also be in contention for that spot.

Canadiens' Joshua Roy: Ends goalie's night
Roy scored a goal on one shot, blocked three shots and had one hit in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Blue Jackets.
Roy tipped in an Arber Xhekaj slapshot for Montreal's third goal in the first 5:48 of the game. The Canadiens scored on three of their first four shots, and Roy's tally put an early end to Elvis Merzlikins' night. The marker was the third in the last four games for Roy, who flashed a scoring touch for AHL Laval before being summoned to the parent club in February.

Roy was recalled from AHL Laval on Saturday, according to CapFriendly.

Canadiens' Joshua Roy: Shipped to AHL
Roy was sent down to AHL Laval on Friday.
Roy has played 18 games with Montreal, recording three goals and five assists. He'll likely be right back with the big club ahead of Saturday's game versus Toronto, as this move was presumably only made to make Roy eligible for the AHL playoffs.

Canadiens' Joshua Roy: Lights lamp again Thursday
Roy scored his third goal of the season in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Hurricanes.
The 20-year-old gave Montreal a 1-0 lead early in the first period, but it was all the offense the visitors could muster. Roy has been quietly productive of late, picking up two goals and six points over the last nine games while seeing shifts on the second power-play unit and recording a surprising plus-5 rating. A fifth-round pick in 2021, he's looking like he could be a draft-day steal for the Habs.

Canadiens' Joshua Roy: Sends game into OT
Roy scored a goal on one shot and had two hits in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Predators.
Roy stole a puck in the neutral zone and beat Juuse Saros with a laser to the short side for the game-tying goal that set up overtime. The tally snapped a 13-game scoring drought for Roy, who has two goals and five assists over 17 games since being called up from AHL Laval. The winger has bounced around the middle six but lately has taken up residence on the second line and as part of the second-unit power play.

Canadiens' Joshua Roy: Records assist in win
Roy had an assist, one shot on net, one block and one hit in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Coyotes.
Roy initiated the sequence that led to Montreal's first goal. It was the fourth helper in the last five games for Roy, who has a goal and five assists in 14 games since being called up from AHL Laval.

Canadiens' Joshua Roy: Two helpers in Wednesday's loss
Roy picked up two assists in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Sabres.
It's the first career multi-point performance for the 20-year-old rookie, who helped set up tallies by Arber Xkekaj in the first period and Jayden Struble in the second. Roy, a fifth-round pick in the 2021 Draft, looks like he could be a real asset for the Habs -- after producing 13 goals and 32 points in 40 games for AHL Laval to begin the season, he's collected a goal and five points in his last nine NHL contests and has worked his way onto the second power-play unit.

Canadiens' Joshua Roy: Sets up Habs' first goal in loss
Roy had an assist, two blocks and one hit over 12:42 of ice time in Saturday's 4-3 loss to Washington.
Roy and fellow third-line winger Joel Armia were part of a rush that led to Montreal's first goal, scored by defenseman Arber Xhekaj. It was the first point for Roy in four games since being called up from AHL Laval on Feb. 10. The 20-year-old native of Quebec had a goal and an assist during an earlier six-game stint with the parent club. Roy was promoted due to the lower-body injury suffered by Rafael Harvey-Pinard, who is out until at least mid-March.

Canadiens' Joshua Roy: Brought up from AHL

Canadiens' Joshua Roy: Returns to AHL
Roy was reassigned to AHL Laval on Wednesday.
Roy has a goal and two points in six games with Montreal in 2023-24. He also has 12 goals and 30 points in 34 outings with Laval. Although Roy is being sent down for now, the 20-year-old does have the potential to eventually establish himself as a top-six forward at the NHL level.

Canadiens' Joshua Roy: Sets up Armia
Roy had an assist and one shot on net over 11:43 of ice time in Saturday's 9-4 loss to Boston.
Roy lead a break and delivered a well-placed feed for Joel Armia's first-period tally. It was the second point in the last three games for Roy, who scored his first NHL goal in Wednesday's win over the Devils. He was called up from AHL Laval a week ago and could stay with the parent club, which sits outside playoff positioning. If Montreal trades veterans while continuing a rebuild process that began in earnest in 2022-23, it's easy to see Roy maintaining a regular spot on the roster.

Canadiens' Joshua Roy: Scores first NHL goal
Roy scored a goal on a team-high five shots in Wednesday's 3-2 win over New Jersey. He also had a block and a hit over 12:32 of ice time.
The 20-year-old Roy potted his first NHL goal in his third NHL game. Montreal took advantage of the Devils' botched line change, as Roy finished a 2-on-1 break with linemate Sean Monahan. The rookie is filling in for Josh Anderson (lower body), but the scoring-starved Canadiens may find room for Roy once the veteran is ready. He was a productive scorer at the junior level and during his rookie season in the AHL.
