According to a source close to Roy, the former goalie is enjoying a well-deserved year off after a Memorial Cup win with the Quebec Remparts in 2023.
The same source also mentionned that two NHL teams made Roy offers during the off-season, but he refused them.
He stated that both offers came from Western Conference teams, which may have influenced Roy's decision.
He said:
At 57 years old, Roy isn't getting any younger and these details surely had an impact on his decision. However, if he waits for the right offer, he could wait a while.
Even if there's often coach changes in the NHL, there's also a lot of qualified candidates. Roy's return in the NHL isn't certain at all. We can only hope that it'll happen at some point.
