Joshua Roy's First Goal of the Season Might Mean More Than You Think
Last night, the Laval Rocket scored their very first goal of the season in the opening game, and it was none other than Joshua Roy who scored it.
An almost ironic scenario when you think about everything that has been said about him in recent weeks.
Sent to the American Hockey League after a disappointing training camp, the young Quebec forward found himself at the center of criticism.
Many, including Tony Marinaro on his podcast, did not hesitate to say that his future "might be elsewhere."
But Roy responded in the best possible way: with his play on the ice.
Joshua Roy Silences Critics with Rocket's First Goal
On the power play, he jumped on his own rebound to score.
Here's the clip:
Rocket fans clearly felt that this goal meant more than just a point on the board.
I really think it was a message.
Because despite everything he's been criticized for, Joshua Roy seems determined. He truly wants to make his place in the NHL.
In a recent interview with Radio-Canada, he even confirmed that he wants to "work on the details" and "add strings to his bow" to become a more complete player.
In my opinion, if he adds consistency to his game, Kent Hughes and the Canadiens might give him a call sooner rather than later if a spot opens up at the top.
