The former Montreal Canadiens scout, Grant McCagg, is quite convinced since a few weeks on social networks that Shane Wright should not be selected at the first rank of the next draft, by the CH.
According to him, the best player available is Slovakian winger Juraj Slafkovsky.
The former Tricolore scout mentions that during Slovakia's last game against Kazakhstan, Slafkovsky showed an "elite" skating stroke, excellent puck handling, a very intelligent game, and a very good defensive game.
In conclusion, for McCagg, the choice is obvious, it's Slafkovsky.
