Superb play by Juraj Slafkovsky: he uses his speed and serves a clever pass to Mesar, who scores!
See the beautiful play of Juraj Slafkovsky:
On the penalty kill, he used his speed to beat the defenseman, and he served a brilliant pass to the other Slovakian drafted in 2022 by the Montreal Canadiens, Filip Mesar.
All this with one less man on the ice.
Clearly, Slafkovsky needed to show that he is too dominant for this rookie tournament, and that's what he's doing now.
He's all over the ice, he's getting a lot of scoring chances, and he's set up several nice plays for Mesar (including the one that just led to a short-handed goal).
"Juraj Slafkovsky showed right off the bat that he is a player who constantly wants the puck, but is also willing to make the right play when he needs to get involved defensively.
Lots of fight and great vision to spot teammates."
