Roy tallied an assist and dished out two hits during Thursday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
Despite missing 10 games with a lower-body injury, Roy has still managed a healthy two goals and 12 points in 41 games which would put him in line for another 25+ season if he can keep up this pace the rest of the way. The 29-year-old has been an invaluable defensive presence for the Capitals, but a lack of offensive upside limits his fantasy value.

Roy scored an even-strength goal in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Devils.
EDGE Analysis
Roy opened the scoring with his first goal of the season in the first period of Saturday's loss. The right-shot blueliner missed 10 games earlier in the campaign due to a lower-body injury, but he's offered steady production while skating alongside Rasmus Sandin in a top-four capacity. Roy has points in three of his last six games, and overall, he's notched a goal, three assists and a plus-3 rating through 10 appearances.

Roy logged an assist, three blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Roy has three helpers over six games since he returned from a lower-body injury. That accounts for all of his offense through seven appearances this year. The 29-year-old defenseman usually puts up fine depth offense from the blue line, but he's been a little lacking in the physical stats with 12 hits and 10 blocked shots so far.

Roy notched an assist, three shots on goal, five hits, three blocked shots and two PIM in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
Roy returned from a 10-game absence due to a lower-body injury and immediately reclaimed a top-four role. He saw 20:07 of ice time on the second pairing. The 29-year-old defenseman offers modest offense, but he should be a decent source of non-scoring production, particularly blocked shots and hits, going forward.

Roy (lower body) is expected to be activated off injured reserve and play Wednesday versus Nashville, head coach Spencer Carbery told Sammi Silber of The Hockey News.
EDGE Analysis
Roy hasn't been in the lineup since Oct. 12 due to his lower-body injury. He's projected to serve on the third pairing alongside Rasmus Sandin. Dylan McIlrath, who has dressed in Washington's last 10 games, might be a healthy scratch Wednesday.
