Roy sent home.
As I speculated this morning the Bolts are taking action against Andre Roy. Roy, who went nuts after his second fight which resulted in the defensman’s beating, has been sent home and according to Lightning spokesman Bill Wickett will not return to the team on the current road trip. Roy has always been a hot head and has had this problem before as we spoke of earlier but this time he was apparently angered by the continuous replays of him being punched and lost it. It’s hard to judge this guy as we all want someone on the team to be an ‘enforcer’ of sorts and to expect him to fight and not be have a temper is kind of asinine. Slow down with the hand gesture’s and take your beatings a little better and you’ll be fine Andre.
