Juraj Slafkovsky had an insurance marker late last night against Washington but he was a beast all night long and felt like the Canadiens best player in a must-win game. Is this the beginning of a new era for Slaf?

Thank you so much for watching!
I don’t know who actually reads this deep into the description but I appreciate you more than most for actually doing that. You’re just hella academic and one could say you’re a bit of a book worm.

The whole video was claimed by NHL Europe because of the 10 second clip of Slaf scoring … that’s why there’s so many effects around it, tried 4 uploads and it got claimed everytime
If you want to support the channel – there’s a membership option! Going to look into growing this with extra benefits going forward! Hope you guys enjoyed the video!
Live Slaf Love
That goal was still lucky… he almost messed it up.
Habs need a guy like that in the playoffs
This is crazy how some people think he's bad and won't get better.
He's 21 yo player with 50 points, leading the team with 194 hits and only Trocheck, Schenn, Cozens, Tkachuk and Wilson have more hits than him as top line winger (around above 17min/game). He's also the 3rd best forward at blocking shot behind Dvorak and Suzuki with 62 and he doesnt even play in penalty kill. Evan is at 60 and then the next one is Anderson at 39!.
I repeat, the kid is 21, does 50 points, leads in hit, top 3 best shot blocker, but he's a complete failure to lots of people? I'm sorry, but they are simply dumb for thinking so.
1st year, played half of it and was injured, the guy was always falling on his ass and getting his to the head.
2nd year, still fall on his ass, dont retreat in defense, but start producing and stay away from dangerous play.
3rd year, he keeps the same production pace, but now includes a defensive side to his game. Goes from -19 to +4, less penalty taken and doesn't fall on his ass anymore.
"but but but, he's not consistent… he doesnt progress… he only plays half a year,". Some people really can't understand that progression is not a straight line. You have ups and downs and you learn to deal with that and Slaf is doing pretty well at 21.
Great video btw
They used Wright as a bait because they knew.
Nice trolling tho. 😆
It seems Slaf is a big game player. He showed this when he played in the Olympics and other national team games. Hopefully he can up this attribute.
Respect !!! My bro tru facts
full-on alcoholic Slovak mode, tf is that supposed to mean? xD
He's a RW…
Alcoholic Slovak zone? If you are going to be insulting entire nations with derogatory stereotypes I won't be watching this channel.
Thank you for this video! It was much needed for the people who don't understand hockey
Dude I have been hearing how this kid is bust but he has 3 seasons , 100+ points and turned 21 like month ago. Sure there are better 1st overral picks but he has been pretty solid and hasnt stopped trending upwards since he came to NHL
I think he's one of the most important players in Montreal's play off series, at least this one against caps. Mark my words we'll hear about this guy a lot
The alcoholic slovak mode just struck me like, damn that has a lot of truth into it 😂 you know some slovaks ? Bcs what you consider alcoholism in Canada or USA is just normal guy in Slovakia most of the time 🤣
Us playing a huge physical team like Washington is the best thing for Slaf and all our young guys. It's the best lesson on playing playoff hockey.
Alcoholic Slovak mode, lol. Man, you know us so well!
This series is not going to seven. It's over in six, and the Habs will be moving on while Ovi and his ugly dog Wilson can play golf with t.rump.
He could of used a couple seasons in the Ahl , to get used of north american Hockey , but Montreal decided to develop him in the nhl .With Marty being coach and the team in rebuild mode I think he will be fine . In 3 -4 years he will be a dominant force !
Slaf said he wanted to play more like tkachuk and has been doing that on the boards like a monster. The scary thing is his offensive talent is way bigger than tkachuk this kid is becoming a problem to deal with
Another banger vid!
Bro has NOT checked his stats
So glad that the management made him realise the type pf player he really is. Just like anderson, dvorak, evans the habs are so strong now its kinda scary tbh they get better every loss they take and that is scary in playoffs
He’s becoming a great quarterback and would contribute to any line you put him on. Exactly what everyone was hoping for and He’s only getting better
genuinely confused and baffled when people called him a bust. His offensive pressure and board battles lead to countless goals. I think hes an invaluable asset and has been for quite some time he just has a thankless job and people who dont play hockey think he sucks.
Love my Habs, next few seasons are going to be amazing
He's got all the tools and he's getting smarter at using them.
I honestly don't know whether his ceiling is around the 60 pt or the 80 pt mark yet, but anywho, he's improving by the minute right now.
Strome cross checking Thompson in the face is ironic.
Love the vids just subbed and youre welcome 🙂
He brings SO much more than just points. Dude is the biggest reason for why that line works as well as it does. He's still far and away the best player from that draft (except for Hutson)
Slaf is a playoff guy. He prove that on senior International level.
He's been great all playoffs. He wasn't only ok last year, he had an excellent second half, even dominant if you take into account his physicality.
Shane wright punching air
Playoffs is EXACTLY where we thought Slaf would break out, and he did. Being that power forward on that dynamic top line is the perfect role for him, and his play only levels up when the intensity rises (see world championships, Olympics)
Great video as always. GHG
each time he has a good game theres some guy saying ''he just broke out''….he must have broken out about 15 times since his debut
Hello you live in canada?
did you watch the brosky after 4 nations? he was way better then friday no ?
