A surprising statement from Alex Burrows regarding Slafkovsky and his future role with the CH
Since young Juraj Slafkovsky officially became a Montreal Canadiens player, fans, and probably management as well, have been anxious to see him report to Habs training camp.
We can't wait to see him in action against CH players and we obviously can't wait to see if he'll start the season in the National Hockey League, or not.
We're certainly taking it one step at a time, but after such a strong development camp, it's hard not to get excited about seeing Slafkovsky in Montreal this October.
Even Habs assistant coach Alex Burrows is already thinking big for Slafkovsky, he has already admitted that he wants to make him a bigger part of the team.
As reported by DLC.com, not only does Burrows hope to see Slafkovsky break into the Tricolore's lineup (as soon as this season), he's already thinking about a role for him on the power play, imagine that:
He's already clearly and openly admitting that he needs to find a spot on the power play. It's really interesting and it promises!
It's rare to see a coach step forward like this, especially with a rookie, but he's 100% right to do so. We love it, it's refreshing!
This is a surprising, but pleasantly surprising statement. We can even make a connection with the renewed transparency of the organization towards the fans.
