Hey there! I just read about Juraj Slafkovsky and his journey with the Canadiens, and I have to say, I'm really excited about his potential. It's impressive how he's bounced back after that tough rookie season and knee injury. The eight-year extension shows that the organization believes in him, and I think he has the chance to be a real game-changer for Montreal.
His toughness is something that stands out to me. In today's NHL, having a player who can score but also isn't afraid to throw a hit is invaluable. It reminds me of the old-school players who could do it all. Slafkovsky's ability to stand up for himself and his teammates is crucial, especially for a team like the Canadiens that needs to establish a more physical presence.
I also think it's important to give him time to develop. He's only 20 and still finding his way in the league. The fact that he's already contributing with assists and leading in hits shows that he's involved in the game, even if the goal-scoring isn't where we want it yet. As the season progresses, I believe we'll see him grow into a more complete player.
What do you think? Do you see Slafkovsky becoming a key player for the Canadiens this season?
