Nicolas Roy
Colorado Avalanche Center #10
A six-foot-four centre who wins faceoffs, kills penalties and has been on a Cup team doing it.

Last Season
Eight goals and 25 points in 74 games, even on the plus-minus, on fourteen and a half minutes a night. That is roughly his established rate across five seasons.
The Finesse Game
Modest but not absent. He has scored fifteen in a season, he finishes around the net, and he can make a play from below the goal line with his reach. Seventy-six shots in seventy-four games is a low volume that fits the role.
He is a genuinely good faceoff centre, which is the specific skill that keeps him on a roster.
The Physical Game
Six-four and 200, and he uses the length more than the weight. He protects pucks well, is hard to check off the cycle, and does the defensive work without being a punishing hitter.
The Intangibles
A fourth-round pick who became a useful third-line centre on a championship team, which is exactly the kind of player who gets traded to a contender and quietly matters in April.
At twenty-nine this is settled. He is a good third-line centre and will be for several more seasons.
