Ensuring he is ready for what matters, not playing against Kazakhstan two weeks before training camp and risking injury.

Slovakia should not need Slaf to qualify. They should be able to qaulify with non-NHLers.

 

[mediator]

Looking at the list of the opponents, they SHOULD qualify despite not having their best possible roster

 

[ahmedou]

No Slaf vs Reinbacher

No party

Team Australia vs Team Slovakia

Not stoked to hear that months after his season ended, but hopefully it's really minor.

He probably tweaked something while training this off-season, probably happens regulary. It's just not mentioned because the player is fine once camp start.

They said that he would play if they had a game that night. Very minor just being so incredibly cautious.

Excellent stuff but the back stuff is a bit concerning.

"This is just the beginning"

Slaf has a greatness factor and he knows what he has to do to achieve his goals.

I expect a dominant season from him. Confidence begets more confidence. He will be a runaway train this year. Book it!

Seems like it's minor and they have a plan to be full health before season.

 

[Hannibal]

Big unit.

“I wish we would could skip training camp and just start the season, because I’m excited to play games that mean something.”

 

[Le Tricolore]

Big unit.

Keep him away from birds!

I can easily see 30g, 40a from him this year.

43 pts in his last 53 games last year, that's truly very good!!

A pretty impressive and important contrast compared to the discussion we had on this thread last year at the same date.

Nicolas Cloutier was on BPM Sports just now on Marinaro's show. He had checked in on Reinbacher and Slaf recently for their off-season training.

Slaf confirmed to Cloutier that he is currently at 220 lbs.
