Roy notched an assist and two shots on goal in Monday's 5-1 win over the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
Roy helped out on Carl Grundstrom's second goal of the contest. The assist ended a five-game point drought for Roy, who has been mainly a defensive presence in a bottom-four role lately. The blueliner has three goals, two helpers, 23 shots on net, 22 blocked shots, 12 hits and a minus-1 rating through 11 games.

Roy scored two goals on six shots in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout win over the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
Roy produced the Kings' third-period comeback, burying goals off feeds from Brendan Lemieux and Gabriel Vilardi in a span of 4:52. This was Roy's second multi-point effort in five games this season. The 27-year-old defenseman has three goals, one helper, 12 shots on net, 14 blocked shots, eight hits and a minus-2 rating while playing in a top-four role. He had a career-high 21 points in 67 outings last year, but with a lack of power-play time, it's tough to expect him to keep this scoring pace up.

Roy was the Kings' hits and blocks leader with seven and six respectively through Los Angeles' first two games.
EDGE Analysis
Roy isn't expected to keep up anything close to that early pace, but he finished with over 100 hits and blocks in 2021-22 and should do so again this season if he stays healthy. He hasn't recorded a point yet in 2022-23 and the 27 year old defenseman has never been a major contributor in that regard. He set a career-high last season with 21 points in 67 contests.

Roy notched an assist, two shots on goal, three hits and three blocked shots in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Oilers in Game 6.
EDGE Analysis
Roy set up Carl Grundstrom's third-period tally. The assist was Roy's first point in six playoff outings this year. The defenseman has added plenty of physicality with 21 blocked shots and 17 hits while playing in a top-four role.

Roy is set to suit up versus Edmonton in Monday's Game 1 clash, LA Kings Insider Zach Dooley reports.
EDGE Analysis
Roy missed 12 games in mid-March due to a lower-body injury, so it wasn't totally surprising to see the club opt to rest the blueliner before the playoffs. Still, the Michigan native registered four points in his previous seven contests and could be a decent mid-range fantasy target.
