“Honestly, I just want to play.”
That’s what Jeremy Roy told Nick Nollenberger this summer in the San Jose Barracuda’s annual “Catching up with the ‘Cuda” series, and it’s hard to blame him.
After suffering a knee injury in October of 2016 that ended his season with the QMJHL’s Blainville-Boisbriand Armada and a grueling 11 months of recovery that followed, Jeremy Roy jumped to the pros. He was slowly progressing in the first few months of the season, mainly working on the third line with Cavan Fitzgerald and was really starting to look like a mainstay on a constantly changing Barracuda roster.
