BOUCHERVILLE, Monday, November 24, 2008 - The Quebec Major Junior Hockey League disciplinary prefect today suspended Quebec Remparts forward Frédérick Roy for fifteen games, including an automatic one game suspension (Code 5-26, Game misconduct penalty for cross-checking).

The suspension follows an incident that occurred during last Friday's game against the Montreal Juniors in which Roy crossed-checked an opponent in the head.

This gesture took place after a stoppage in play, hits were exchanged with a final blow going to the face of the opposing player.

The decision was rendered after reviewing the videotape of the incident and consulting all concerned parties.

In accordance with the QMJHL policy in the matter of disciplinary sanctions, the Disciplinary Prefect will not be available for further comment.
