Prospect Info: 2022 - 1st OA] Juraj Slafkovsky (LW) Part 4

[Pormock]

Slafkovsky showed he has a little bit of Kovalev in the nose. He got hit hard and reacted by taking the puck and scoring a goal then telling the other team to F--off. If thats the kind of player hes gonna be im all for it!

 

[Goldenhands]

But but but, what about his Liiga stats???

 

[Hacketts]

Gotta love Gallagher..

Oh don't worry.. @ExpatHabs will tell you all about them. He'll talk in circles about nothing, and then start all over again!

 

[morhilane]

No stick tape = Bustkovsky
Stick taped = Chadkovsky

He was also holding his stick with two hands instead of one like in previous games.

 

[Estimated_Prophet]

That is two consecutive games with marked improvement, the kid is coming on strong.

 

[Tetragrammaton]

Slafkovsky is gonna be a superstar, he has all the tools and he’s determined. He’s got that necessary intensity. Just a matter of time, let’s take the patient approach.

 

[Goldenhands]

He showed significant improvement last game, let's see if he can build on it tonight.

So what about his poor IQ, poor maping of the ice and all the crap you grossly exagerated about the kid when it was only an adjustment period issue, you know, a 18 year old kid who hadnt even played 5 games at the NHL level. Frankly Im disappointed, an old man with ton of experience who could have an NHL scouting job if he wanted to you know...

18 year olds probably should not be in the NHL. Most of them, even future PPG players go back down. There's a reason for that. Slaf isn't suppose to look good rn in the big league so any development in his game is a positive. The last great rookie that had just been drafted is probably Auston Matthews and dude was 19 when he started the season after playing a full pro season at 18

Looking for some blood tonight, with all the crap that has been said in this thread, I think its time for a reality check!

I’m getting confused. Are we now sending Slaf to the AHL to build confidence or the OHL to learn humility?

 

[BenchBrawl]

At 18, Jagr had 57 pts in 80 games.

OHL, he is too weak for the AHL...

Lol true. You do you. Some people are just plain dumb for critizing a player that's a year younger than Suzuki was when he had his first development camp with the Habs and absolutely sucked

A lot of shivering and air punching going on behind some computer screens tonight.

 

[Twisted Sinister]

When someone write hundreds of post to point out all the bad sides of our 1st pick and about Slaf..... How do you call that ?

Discussion?

I think if everyone here had the same opinion, things would be a bit boring.

Writing thousands of posts worded differently about the same flawed argument isnt for discussion purpose, thats trolling.
