Profile Contributed By: HF Staff

History

2007-08: Roe completed a stellar freshman season at St. Cloud State, where he finished second in the nation in rookie scoring with 45 points (18 goals, 27 assists) and earned a spot on the WCHA All-Rookie Team. Roe was one of the WCHA’s most consistent point producers all season long. On December 8 against the University of Denver, Roe moved into second place all-time in the program’s history for consecutive games with a point (13), surpassing the 12 that former Husky Mark Hartigan set back in 2001-02.

Talent Analysis

What Roe lacks in size, makes with great instincts and creativity, and an excellent burst of speed. One area where he really excelled this season at SCSU was on face-offs. Roe’s size and quickness allows him to exploit open spaces effectively, particularly in creating or finishing plays. He has the ability to make those around him better too. Roe is can be elusive and is difficult to contain. 

One of Roe’s best assets are his hands. He is blessed with soft yet quick hands. He is very poised and patient with the puck, but what sets him apart from many collegiate rookies is his great decisions with it. He is a superb passer, and is able to make something out of nothing. His shots are hard, quick and fairly accurate. He does a very good job of picking his spots and is very strong around the net.

Roe can play all three forward positions, but spends most of his time at center.

Future

Roe will enter his sophomore year at SCSU this fall.
