Juraj Slafkovsky Surprises Journalist with a Touching Promise to Canadiens Fans After Yesterday's Win
Young Montreal Canadiens forward, Juraj Slafkovsky, has just made a touching promise to Canadiens fans.
In an interview after the game with the excellent journalist Anthony Martineau from TVA Sports, it was heartwarming to see a happy and smiling Slafkovsky again.
After all, the young Slovak forward had his best game in a long time with two points (1 goal and 1 assist).
Juraj Slafkovsky promises to ensure he never goes through such a difficult stretch again
You can feel that he is truly motivated and more determined than ever to become the dominant player he has the talent to be.
Being demoted to the fourth line helped him realize some things, by his own admission.
Check out the footage:
And here's another statement from the young forward:
«Playing on a fourth line was really a wake-up call for me. I haven't played there often, and I'll make sure it doesn't happen again.»
It's truly a joy to see and hear.
In any case, no one can say that this young man doesn't have the right attitude.
While some had already started doubting his $7.6 million annual contract, valid until 2033, Slafkovsky reassured many people last night.
In the end, the Montreal Canadiens' 2022 first-overall pick has accumulated 13 points in 19 games this season, which is far from disastrous.
If we compare this to a certain Shane Wright (5 points in 20 games), we realize it could be much worse.
What do you think? Has Juraj Slafkovsky truly «turned the corner»? Personally, I believe all this will help make him better.
After all, he's still in the middle of the learning process, being only 20 years old.
