Considering Rehabs was trashing Slafkovsky on a daily basis here, I think it's fair to shame him on a daily basis as well.

I tried to @ him but it seems he either closed his account or changed username. I'd do the same to be honest.

Honestly, I have a lot more respect for people who can admit they were wrong, or at the very least, maybe overzealous with hate or praise of a player. If I’m going to double down, triple down and so on, I’m mature enough to face the music.

I’ve been a staunch defender of KK for example but can admit now I was wrong. I’ve never bashed @Goldenhands but I sure as F*** didn’t agree with him leading up to the draft about Slaf, but yes, I was WRONG.

Who knows? Maybe Slaf will regress but I think he’s at least shown that he has the talent to complement if not drive a line. He’s not always going to have games like tonight, but he’s shown he can so that bodes well for the team moving forward.

Gotta say he's outperforming my expectations for the end of the year. I definitely laughed at a few suggesting he'd finish with 40 points after his awful start. I think he may clear that comfortably.

I am the winner though because I cheer for the Habs. A player doing well doesn't make me feel bad. :popcorn:

I remember working 12 hour shifts last year, sometimes 12+ in a row, coming on here for the 5-10 minutes I had a day and every single popular thread would be devolved into whining about Slaf/Hughes by the same few suspects. It was an awful period on the board and I was barely on for nearly a year. Great to be rid of em.

So yeah, there were some studies about these Pejorative Slured kids in a country and it was a real study and some of these kids had help doing the thing and others didn't have help doing the thing you know. And the Pejorative Slured kids with the help ended up developing an absolutely massive prefrontal cortex which cured their Pejorative Sluration and so Slaf should have been in the AHL.

That was something.

Those who had Wright in 2022, and Cooley in 2023.

Do you finally had Slaf?

Don't think anybody expected this kind of development so quickly after looking mediocre at best early. What's more impressive is that his play has been just as good if not better than his production. I'll gladly eat crow along with many others here since despite not writing him off, his start was disappointing. Of course this has to keep up in the future, but why would it not, he's 19 and doing everything right on top of producing.
