Juraj becomes a different player when he plays internationally - he plays with a lot of confidence and pride for his country.... however when he plays for the CH it seems he lacks the pride. I dont think he likesp laying in Montreal or for that club much

Not sure if you saw much of him this season with Montreal because this is all wrong.

I mean he made major strides this season.

But it often happens with international players for smaller/fringe countries on the international stage...they are the centrepieces of their teams so they can sometimes have individual success.

i watch most Habs games on RDS with one of my straight dads- i've probably seen 90 of Jurajs' NHL games and all of them at an international level (all olympic games in China, despite the timezone issues)
?


He plays hard for the Habs and had a great second season.
he defintly had a great second season - no arguing that but he is still catching up to his play at the international stage

i agree he did make major strides at NHL LEVEL but hes been playing ""catchup"" with his INTERNATIONAL PLAY.. which has been vastly superior since he was pre-drafted. Its nite and day often how much more ""compete"" is in his game when playing for SVK. Maybe HABS need less red in their jersey and more BLUE? just food for thought

Canada's playing really well after 2. Could easily be 5-1.

Slovakia keeping it close - that is never good.
