Roy was whistled for a major penalty, sending the Oilers to a five-minute power play that they failed to capitalize on, though Edmonton won later on a goal by Leon Draisaitl. The Knights were in danger of losing Roy for longer in the series after he met with the league, but ESPN reported that the NHL decided not to suspend Roy.

Vegas Golden Knights forward Nicolas Roy received a fine but escaped a possible suspension following a hearing with the NHL Department of Player Safety on Friday night.
