Patrick Roy’s Son, Jonathon, Will Stand Trial for On-Ice Assault

by Chris Mottram

From the Montreal Gazette:

The son of former Montreal Canadiens goaltender Patrick Roy will have to stand trial for assault following an on-ice fight last year.

Jonathan Roy, then a goalie for the Quebec Remparts of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, was charged after pounding an opposing goalie during a nasty hockey brawl in March 2008.

His defence lawyer filed a motion for a stay of proceedings arguing his client was the victim of procedural abuse, but a Quebec court judge dismissed the request Tuesday and said Roy will have to face trial.

Here’s video of the incident, featuring young Jonathon pounding the living crap out of Bobby Nadeau:
