Joshua Roy played his first NHL game on Saturday night and will play his second tonight against the formidable Colorado Avalanche. Martin St-Louis did his best not to have him face Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl, and it's likely he'll do the same against Nathan MacKinnon and Mikko Rantanen.
We know that Pearson had a fractured finger, so his rehabilitation won't be very long. A few practices, and he'll be in the lineup, likely signaling the end of Roy's time in Montreal for now.
