  • This article touches mainly on Roy’s personal life, both before and after the injury, which is something that is completely missing from Wikipedia. It also includes small pieces of information about his accident and then speaking career and foundation, which can be used to cite current information in the article or add small details.

Berkow, Ira. “For Drury, Winning Is Not the Only Thing.” The New York Times, The New York Times, 2 May 2006, www.nytimes.com/2006/05/02/sports/hockey/02drury.html.

  • This article is not about Roy, but about his former Boston University teammate Chris Drury. In the article, Drury focuses on Roy’s off ice accomplishments and the inspiration that brings. I think this article will be useful for both some personal life post-injury information, as well as information on how the two of them have fundraised and raised awareness together.

  • I will be able to use this article to give a little more insight into Roy’s death. Along with that, this article has a lot of other important information on Roy, as it kind of summarizes his life, so I will be able to use it to fill any minor content gaps as well as use as a source for some uncited information.

  • This is an article written by Roy himself. I think this will give a lot insight to the foundation and how he has mad his life fulfilling from his persepctive. I think his perspective is a very important one to have when writing about him.
