Golden Knights forward Nicolas Roy was fined but not suspended Friday for cross-checking the Oilers' Trent Frederic in the face in Game 2.

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. "The NHL Department of Player Safety announced the fine of $7,813, the maximum allowed under the collective bargaining agreement, after a disciplinary hearing with him," the report noted.

Vegas Golden Knights forward Nicolas Roy will have a hearing with the NHL Department of Player Safety on Friday, one day after cross-checking Trent Frederic of the Edmonton Oilers. Roy received a five-minute major and a game misconduct at 5:37 of overtime during the Golden Knights' 5-4 loss to the Oilers on Thursday in Game 2 of the Western Conference semifinal series in Las Vegas.
