Suzuki reveals a big clue about the CH's new lineup for next year, with the addition of Slafkovsky
When the Canadiens' management took to the podium on Thursday night to announce the selection of Juraj Slafkovsky, it was noticeable that Nick Suzuki was present with the team's management.
When Kent Hughes announced the team's first pick at the microphone, one Cole Caufield was quick to text his good friend Suzuki to express how excited he was about Slafkovsky joining the Habs, as reported by David St-Jean of Marqueur.com.
As for No. 14, he also showed his joy and said he was very much looking forward to playing with the 18-year-old Slovak winger.
Suzuki even mentioned that the Habs' management will not hesitate to place Slafkovsky on their trio to have success quickly. Interesting!
So we could really see the following trio, next October: Nick Suzuki (center) with Cole Caufield and Juraj Slafkovsky on the wings.
Of course, you don't want to skip any steps in his case and even if the 18 year old starts the season in Montreal with Caufield and Suzuki, the chemistry between the three players will have to be established.
But in case the chemistry doesn't work, a trio composed of Slafkovsky, Kirby Dach and Josh Anderson could be very interesting since they are three players with imposing sizes and it would give a different dimension to the Habs' attack.
In fact, a young player full of talent like Juraj Slafkovsky could easily play with any of the Habs' players and it is clear that the team's management will do everything to facilitate his development.
Are you starting to look forward to training camp?
