#1OA Juraj Slafkovsky - Huge Disappointment

[BigDaddyLurch]

I would wait until the end of next season(2025-26), to see where he is at. If he is in the same place, than he is not living up to expectations but he may take time to really take the next step.

I think he tops out as a 50-60 point winger, that whole draft looks like no elite talent comes of it(maybe Cooley) but so far looking like a weak draft.

...he hit 50 in his 2nd year and looks like he will this year as well in his 3rd...so he's topped out??...good call, Tips...

Hutson also has potential, same draft

"Just play like Brady Tkachuk" lol.

I have absolutely nothing against Juraj personally but the guy skates in wet cement. Mark Stone was a horrible skater but still carved his way into the upper echelon of the league. It's a coin toss at this point imo

Having a down year for sure, but still way too early to make proclamations about him as if he’s a finished product.

I do question the wisdom of that contract though.

Also… 250 posts and no one’s made a “Juraj’s still out” joke?

...Habs boards have made a few in the past couple of years...they got old, apparently...
