Roy was in a bad shape the season previous to his draft year. He said that his new team had better training facilities and he realized his teammates were in better shape than him . That's the reason he was selected far. He also said that he worked hard to loose 25 pounds during the summer. I also think that he had a breathing problem but i am not sure about this one.Roy migth challenge for a Calder if he is on a regular 2nd line with Dach. I have never seen a fan base so negative against your own team. It's depressing.
a lot of fans keep the first things they read about a player. Roy keeps the reputation of the guy that doesn't work, Mailloux is still view as the really bad guy ( i have even read here a sexual predator) for his fault he have made at 17 years old...
