Golden Knights' Nicolas Roy to have hearing with NHL
May 9 - Vegas Golden Knights forward Nicolas Roy will have a hearing with the NHL Department of Player Safety on Friday, one day after cross-checking Trent Frederic of the Edmonton Oilers. Roy received a five-minute major and a game misconduct at 5:37 of overtime during the Golden Knights' 5-4 loss to the Oilers on Thursday in Game 2 of the Western Conference semifinal series in Las Vegas. Edmonton holds a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven series heading into Game 3 on Saturday in Edmonton. Roy attempted to play the puck while it was airborne but made contact with Frederic's head instead, resulting in a laceration for the Oilers forward. Frederic briefly exited the game before making a quick return to the ice. Edmonton, however, failed to capitalize on the ensuing five-minute power play. Roy, 28, has failed to record a point and owns a minus-4 rating over the first two games of this series. He totaled 31 points (15 goals, 16 assists) in 71 games during the regular season. A Stanley Cup winner with Vegas, Roy has recorded 166 points (68 goals, 98 assists) in 369 career games with the Carolina Hurricanes and Golden Knights. --Field Level Media
