Roy logged an assist, nine hits, two blocked shots and four PIM in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Flyers.
Roy picked up his first point in five appearances this season. The 31-year-old defenseman missed six games due to a lower-body injury earlier in the campaign. Roy should fill a top-four role while providing decent category coverage for deeper fantasy formats. He has racked up three shots on net, 18 hits, eight blocked shots and four PIM on the year.

Roy is expected to suit up for Tuesday's home clash against the Kings, per Sammi Silber of The Hockey News.
He's slated to re-join the Capitals top defensive pair alongside Jakob Chychrun for Tuesday's clash after Roy missed the last six games with a lower-body injury. The 31-year-old Roy should help strengthen the team's defensive performance, as he recorded five hits and five blocked shots across two games prior to the injury. He's not a player who should fly off the waiver wire in standard leagues, but he's an option in deep leagues that value banger stats.

Roy (lower body) could return to the lineup as early as Tuesday against the Kings, Tarik El-Bashir of Monumental Sports Network reports.
After missing the last six games due to a lower-body injury, Roy returned to Washington's top defense pairing in Monday's practice. He hasn't earned a point in two appearances this season, but he has registered five hits and five blocked shots. If Roy is ready for Tuesday's matchup against the Kings, the Capitals will need to activate the 31-year-old blueliner from injured reserve.

Head coach Spencer Carbery said Friday that Roy (lower body) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Devils, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.
Roy has been sidelined since early October due to his upper-body injury, but he appears to be close to returning to game action. Even if he doesn't get the green light to suit up against New Jersey, it seems possible that he'll be cleared to return at some point next week. Across his first two regular-season appearances, he was held scoreless with five hits and five blocked shots while averaging 18:26 of ice time.

Roy (lower body) was designated for injured reserve Monday.
Roy has already missed enough time to be eligible to come off injured reserve at any point, but the fact that he hasn't been cleared for contact points to him missing at least the upcoming back-to-back against Carolina and Montreal on Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively. While Dylan McIlrath has been filling in for Roy, the Caps called up Justin Holl on Monday and could find himself in the lineup instead.

Roy (lower body) isn't expected to play against Seattle on Sunday, according to Tarik El-Bashir of Monumental Sports Network.
Roy remains day-to-day and will miss his third straight game. He has been skating on his own and might be ready to return to the lineup soon. Roy hasn't earned a point in two appearances this season, but he has registered five hits and five blocked shots.
