Journalist Suggests Placing a Veteran on Waivers to Call Up Joshua Roy
After the latest loss by the Montreal Canadiens and head coach Martin St-Louis, changes are necessary to the lineup.
Many are calling for modifications this morning, and the suggestion by Tony Marinaro has resurfaced.
This doesn't necessarily mean Josh Anderson, but perhaps sending a veteran to waivers could be a solution worth considering at this stage.
This is exactly what TVA Sports journalist Renaud Lavoie requested this morning on BPM Sports during his morning segment, which you can find here:
Bring Joshua Roy up, please!
In this discussion, Renaud specifically calls for the recall of the young Quebec forward from the Laval Rocket.
«He doesn't need to spend four months in Laval to understand a slap on the wrist. Joshua Roy knows how to play hockey in the NHL!» - Renaud Lavoie
One factor influences the other.
If they want to recall Joshua Roy from the Laval Rocket, they'll also need to make room for him in the lineup, possibly by placing an «established» player on waivers.
Christian Dvorak's name was mentioned this morning on BPM Sports.
Will it be Christian Dvorak, Josh Anderson, or someone else? Stay tuned, as this will undoubtedly be a situation to monitor for the Montreal Canadiens in the coming hours.
Joshua Roy, 21, has 6 points in 6 games this season with the Laval Rocket and is currently on a good streak.
A developing story to watch.
