Canucks Sign Derek Roy
Vancouver Canucks have been given an offensive boost to their season as yesterday it was announced that Dallas Stars centre Derek Roy is heading to the Rogers Arena in exchange for a conditional second round pick and Defense Prospect Kevin Connauton.
With the Canuck struggling to score even with two veteran centres during regular season play, Roy will certainly help improve stats and so far he has notched up 22 points with 4 goals and 18 assists while playing in Dallas. It is expected that Roy will help elevate the third forward line and together with Jannik Hansen and Chris Higgins, together this line could prove important.
With Henrik Sedin finding form and Ryan Kesler expected to be playing again within a week, Roy signing has come at an important time and with other centre Maxim LaPierre anchoring the four line, the Canucks goal tally could be steadily increasing!
