SJ / COL Deadline Deal: Sharks get Duchene.

Team: 2016-17 San Jose Sharks

Initial Creation Date: Jan. 26, 2017

Published: Jan. 26, 2017

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Jeremy Roy:

A gifted two-way Dman that establishes his presence on the ice through playing authoritative hockey, w/ & w/o the puck. His absolute and total awareness of other players' positions on the ice is a testament to his incredible knowledge of the game. Roy possesses the intangibles of maturity and character that can't be taught, as well as the individual skill that turns heads every time he is on the ice. All-in-all, a highly intelligent defenceman that plays high-percentage hockey and is a catalyst for positive plays in all three zones.

When talking to scouts about Jeremy Roy, the name Duncan Keith often shows up in the same sentence; the offensive and defensive traits embodied by the Chicago Blackhawks star defenseman seem to be akin to what the young Roy aspires to.

Dropped in the 2015 draft for whatever reason out of 1st round projections so the Sharks traded up and drafted him with the first pick of the 2nd round.
