Joshua Roy may not have been included in Canada’s roster for the World Junior Hockey Championship back in January, but when he was added to the squad this summer for the postponed tournament, he took the opportunity and ran with it.
Roy, who amassed 119 points for the Sherbrooke Phoenix to lead the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL) in scoring last season, made the most of his ice time. He posted eight points, three goals and five assists, in seven games, and walked away with a gold medal.
“I’m very happy with how I played. I did very well. I had another role in this tournament. I was used more on the shut down line and I think I did pretty well during the whole tournament in that role, so yeah, I’m pretty happy,” Roy told The Record in a phone interview Monday.
