Golden Knights’ Roy fined but not suspended for cross-checking Oilers’ Frederic

  • Nicolas Roy of the Vegas Golden Knights was fined $7,813 for cross-checking Edmonton Oilers winger Trent Frederic during overtime in Game 2 on May 8, 2025, at T-Mobile Arena.
  • The incident followed a board battle, with Roy receiving a major penalty and game misconduct, leading to a disciplinary hearing that typically results in suspension but did not in this case.
  • Frederic sustained a facial cut and briefly left the game, while the Oilers were unable to take advantage of the subsequent major penalty; they ultimately secured a 5-4 overtime victory.
  • Roy, 28 years old, tallied 31 points during 71 regular-season games and has three points through eight playoff games, and he avoided his first suspension despite the hearing.
  • The fine represents the maximum allowed by the collective bargaining agreement, and the Golden Knights trail the series 2-0 ahead of Game 3 in Edmonton on May 10, 2025.
