Derek Roy played 11 seasons in the NHL (2003-04 to 2014-15), with the first half of it spent in Buffalo.

As a Sabre, Roy had four straight seasons where he had at least 60 Points, where he peaked with 81 in 2007-08. Roy would later play for Dallas, Vancouver, St. Louis, Nashville and Edmonton, and would go on to play five years in Europe afterward.

As Roy was playing in Europe in 2018, he was able to represent Canada in the Olympics (the NHLers were not involved in these Games), and he won a Bronze Medal for his country. Roy also won two Silver Medals for Team Canada at the World Hockey Championships (2008 & 2009).
