I will say it again...wait until he is fully physically developed and has 200+ games of experience and he will be overwhelming for Dmen throughout the league. The kid is a force in waiting.

Anyways whatever detractors are saying about Slaf he tells to himself twofold at night in his bed, guy's got a shit attitude when it comes to his own game despite his natural cockiness He's well aware of what he needs to do to be successful

In my line of work we call feedback necessary and don’t call those giving it detractors, but otherwise I have to agree, because he’s noticeably much better and habs have a full 1st line again.

Saw that on the goal too! I said to my son that Allen must have had snow in his eyes or got distracted.

Caufield and Suzuki should ask Slaf to do that more often!

I am officilly giving Slaf a new chance, I like what Ive seen from him lately. To me it seems like he might hit his assumed ceiling if he puts it all together at some point, otherwise he can just keep playing the same style he has played lately and he will imo be worth his contract as a whole. He is a win-win the way I see him as of now.

Laine is one of the rare big guys that makes it on skills alone from day one. Laine can score so easily from so far that strength and power are a secondary subset to his game. By contrast, while Slaf had enough skill and speed to get him in the NHL very young he was drafted as a power forward and to exploit this side it really starts at 21. It will happen simultaneously with the opening of our Cup window. Like Neely at 25 years old, when Slaf will have the puck in the last 20 feet around the net he’ll be just too heavy, strong and massive to move.

Most important figure is the 2 shots per game on average

I was at the game yesterday and he impressed me, he went at the Jets D carrying the puck and was intense along the boards. He's gonna be really really good I have no doubt.

Isnt it unprofessional? I mean, in old times, Stu Grimson would beat him this idea off head....

Alpo Suhonen would publicly shame Slaf for such horrible sportsmanship.
