Is there any proof that the store had any contact with Roy's agent (or the team) to set this up in the first place? The store could have been scammed for all we know.

Not surprised the slightest that people living on l'île aux rats think they (still) know better than ones actually coming from his homeplace though.
L'île aux rats..wow .. great comment...ouff..

There is 2 millions people on this island and 50% gdp of the province.

Cause of this island that you have an Nhl team...

This is a nothingburger (even if probably true) but what is worrying is the frequency & consistency of these kind of stories regarding Roy (party boy, inconsistent work ethic on/off ice). And it's not just from blog sites seeking clicks that you get this message.

I think he could be a good 2W in the NHL, very savy with the puck, great shot, smart player, I really hope he makes it but I'm less & less sure he'll have a career with the Habs, and it's not his skating I'm worried about.

PK Subban was at Buananote and copacabana every damn night
Carey Price was a known problem
Kostitsyns...
Gallagher, DD, Pac, Prust, etc were always at Jack in 1030, DD even famously tried to date my then GF.

They're kids, rich ones. They party. Like half the NHL has a drinking problem, that doesn't come from being Nathan Mackinnon.

Next to anything is forgiven as long as you perform on the ice/field/court. Roy couldn't even manage to sink that easy layup of making the team this season. In French we'd say "Y'aurais du se serrer les fesses." Because people were watching him closely now.

Ignoring the outside noise, I have two concerns with Roy. The first is his pace and intensity. The second is his skating. He has I guess decent enough straight away speed, though it's below average for the NHL, but for a player of his offensive skill, the lack of power from crossovers and the lack of skating skills (doesn't really use punch turns, or deception with his skating) is really concerning. Its concerning due to the fact they're skills that players usually work on, even Tavares with his cement feet added these skills, while Roy still looks like he's preparing for juniors.

Leave Roy in Laval until Armia, Dvorak and probably Evans traded at deadline. No rush. Then Him, Mesar be up for at look. Laine be back.
