Playing career
editJunior
editRoy was drafted by the Sherbrooke Phoenix 4th overall in the 2013 QMJHL Entry Draft.[1] In his first season with Sherbrooke he was named to the 2013–14 QMJHL All-Rookie Team and awarded the Raymond Lagacé Trophy as the league's Defensive Rookie of the Year.[2] The following season his outstanding play was rewarded when he was chosen to skate in the 2015 CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game.[3]
Professional
editOn September 13, 2015, Roy signed a three-year entry-level contract with the San Jose Sharks.[4]
At the conclusion of his entry-level contract, with his tenure within the Sharks largely affected through injury, Roy as an impending restricted free agent was not tendered a qualifying offer by San Jose and was released to free agency on October 9, 2020.[5]
Un-signed leading into the pandemic delayed 2020–21 season, Roy was signed to a professional try-out contract with the San Diego Gulls of the AHL, the primary affiliate to the Anaheim Ducks, on January 13, 2021.[6]
In the following 2021–22 season, Roy embarked on a European career in joining Slovakian club, HKM Zvolen of the Slovak Extraliga.[7] Roy enjoyed a productive first season abroad, registering 8 goals and 33 points through 48 regular season games.
As a free agent, Roy opted to continue his career overseas, signing a one-year contract with Russian club, HC Vityaz of the KHL, on June 14, 2022.[8]
International play
editRoy won a gold medal as a member of Team Canada at the 2014 Ivan Hlinka Memorial Tournament, and also competed at the 2015 IIHF World U18 Championships where he led Team Canada to a bronze medal and was selected as one of Canada's Top 3 players.[9]
