Me too. Roy has put up some good point percentages in his junior career and has since improved significantly since his down year (draft year). He looked good in training camp last year and has the size, skill, and skating to be a coaching favorite and skill in modern NHL. His D game has come along but still needs more physical elements, but he can jump into the rush with the best of him.

He's my darkhorse come training camp. His size might put him over the top
