2009 fifth-round pick Olivier Roy began the 2012-13 season as Yann Danis' backup after graduating from the starting role with the ECHL's Stockton Thunder a year prior. But after a so-so start in which the 21-year-old posted a goals-against average approaching 2.90 and a save percentage below the .900 mark, Roy was returned to the Thunder on Feb. 12.
